I have BA in English Literature from Brooklyn College, and studied painting at the Arts Center of the Capital Region and the Ilium Atelier in Troy, NY. My art can be viewed from time to time at various venues, including the Artists’ Space at the National Bottle Museum in Ballston Spa, NY, Albany Center Gallery, Paul Nigra Creative Arts Center, and the Arts Center of the Capital Region. I am a member of the American Impressionist Society, Oil Painters of America, the National Oil and Acrylic Painters’ Society, and the Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council. As an oil painter rooted in the Impressionist tradition, my art mirrors the natural beauty and tranquility of Upstate New York, where I am fortunate to live and create. My landscapes are born out of a deep appreciation for the changing seasons and the picturesque settings that surround me—the banks of the pristine Mohawk River, the majestic cliffs of Thacher Park, the wilds of Vischer Ferry Nature Preserve, the historic shores of Lake George. My commitment is to translate the profound peace I experience in these locales into my paintings, inviting viewers to share in these serene moments. I paint with thick brushstrokes, bringing texture and dynamism to the canvas. Each painting is a spontaneous exploration, created alla prima without the aid of an underpainting, allowing me to capture the immediacy of the moment and to convey the peace, tranquility, and serenity of the natural world.
