On the Rocks, Fisher's Island, New York

 This painting was created on a day trip my husband and I took to Fisher's Island, NY. It was a perfect day in September. The island was very quiet and we spent all day near the water. Dean fished and I painted.

Madison Farm

This painting was painted on a very hot day in July. The only place one could paint without melting was under the big oak trees that were scattered throughout the farm. It was even too hot for the horses to come out of their stalls. But the chickens seemed to carry on their business, clucking and chatting with each other as scurried around nibbling on grain and such.

The Art Lesson - Thimble Island. Branford, CT

this painting was created during a three-day workshop on the Thimble Islands with Bob Noreika. The weather was absolutely gorgeous. Sunny with a slight breeze. On the third day, we were at the tail end of Governor's Island. I love to paint and sketch my fellow artists as they work. For the most part, they stay still and they're concentrating so much on their own work, they have no idea I'm painting them.

This piece was first started as a plein air painting one afternoon in May at Hammonassett Beach in Madison CT. The summer season wasn't in full swing and there were just a few folks walking around, dipping their toe in the chilly water with their pants rolled up to the knees.


We had a very rainy spring this year. The sun was trying it's best to peak through the thick clouds in the sky but just enough to create these gorgeous coral peach colors which compliments the misty blue sky. As the sunlight glimmered across the water's surface I felt a sense of hope radiating right through me.


An undeniable feeling of hope that we've turn the corner on a season that was filled with challenges and brighter days are ahead. I could feel my shoulders slowly dropped and the tension drifting away.
