I was born and raised in the “coal regions” of Pennsylvania which were grey and dismal. That probably explains my interest in vibrant color. I have my BFA in painting from the Philadelphia College of Art. My work has been in many National & Statewide exhibits. For the past several years I’ve been teaching watercolor on cruise ships. This allows me to fulfill my bucket list and have a great time doing it. I also teach locally and have workshops in my mountain home.
