About Moi:
I was born in San Francisco, California to highly educated parents, and my sister is pretty darn smart too. It's unclear if I inherited the smart genes. I graduated with a B.A. in Art from Marymount College
Over the years I illustrated and designed for newspapers, greeting card companies, in corporate graphic departments and publishing empires.
I have a day job but spend every hour around it creating, I reside with my antique dealer- husband and two pudgy house rabbits in a beachside Connecticut Community.
 

ARTIST STATEMENT: I seek to amuse. When I come up with something more profound I'll put it in here.
 

KUDOS:Over the years my work in various forms has been published in:
NYTimes, DollWorld, Contemporary Doll Collector, Doll Castle News, SCBWI magazine, Color! magazine, Jane Green's Down to Earth Blog, Doll World, Scholastics, Westport Magazine, Mail Me Art, and more.

In 2007 I was invited to create an ornament for the State Capitol's Holiday Tree by Governor Rell. I chose to needle felt a bear ornament rather than hang from the tree myself. I named him "Nutmeg" as Connecticut is known as the "Nutmeg" state.

ASSOCIATIONS:I'm the founder of ODACT-www.odact.org or Original Doll Artisans of Connecticut-we're on Facebook. I'm also the founder of AHA or American Holiday Artists a juried group of national artists who create holiday theme art-we're on Facebook too and have a team right here on ETSY.

LICENSING: My work and written copy are finding favor with licensing clients and clients. My art will soon be seen on needlepoint canvases and a locally famous gourmet ice cream package. Contact me the artist re: licensing interest.
