Since moving to New York in 2000, she continues to find new inspirations in the vast beauty and cultural diversity of the Empire State, the Hudson River Valley, and New England. Her work has received extensive awards and consistent acceptance in national juried exhibitions, and is included in numerous collections, among them the United States Marine Corps Security Guard Headquarters, Quantico, Virginia, and Lombardi, Loper & Conant, LLP, Oakland, California Her strong, impressionistic painting and insightful sculpture are firmly based on a foundation of sound classical training, excellent design and keen observation.
