Watch me grow and change as I progress thru my art. I never do the same thing twice. It is a forever changing, learning, growing process for me.

Marie Antionette Mosaic
This mosaic contains a tiny photo of an oil painting of Marie Antionette. The clay is hand pressed and then rubbed with paints and gold metallic. The clear sea glass is decoupaged with vintage dictionary pages. The feeling is of age and a collection of special objects.
I live in a small hamlet in New Hampshire with my husband and son. It is a quintessential New England town with lots of character and history. We have a sweet golden and a black cat (did you know black cats are the last to be adopted?). I am making art again, after a break to raise my son. I have been away from my creative side for too long. I spent all my time on play dates and themed parties. I took my son to every art show and gallery I could find. I took him to music lessons and to live shows. I took him to plays and the theatre. I have tried to expose him to every food and culture I could find. I was obsessed with showing him all the different ways an artist can express themselves. We have lived all over the country and travelled as much as possible. Which is never enough for me!
