Summer 2023 work

 Summer is here and I am working on several new pieces that are inspired from mixed media. I have been a professional  decoupage artist 18 years. My work is always changing and evolving . I think about things and how i can transform them to create something different. This was derived from decoupage cuff that I did of a theme of a clock in Peru. Over the collage I took a earring, pin and buttons to derive a art deco feel. 

This next piece was a theme of a compass I did with paper onto a cuff. Most of my work is derived from a clock theme . When I think about time it resinates a feeling that is valuable, and everyone funcitions around time. Its a common tool people use and a photo of clock can be so different from the brand, object , watch but it all resinates the same thing which is time . A compass gives us direction and each person is always trying to derive a direction in there lives. My direction has always been goal setting . This piece was done with a necklace I took apart and put on top  of the cuff to formalate a compass fee


This last piece is from a belt buckle. Under neath is a art deco theme, I have always been drawn to art deco and the beauty of it along with vintage feel, Art Deco, short for the French Arts Décoratifs, and sometimes referred to simply as Deco, is a style of visual arts, architecture, and product design, 

My trips to Paris inspire me and i think one is coming soon, Hope you enjoy the new work and you can see all of it in the fall at my art studio for South End Open Studios, Happy Summer to all,

April : 2022 : Being Rebellious can be a positive thing.

 Its been some time I have posted. During the past two years I have been thinking more and more about the concept of time. My watch cuffs are inspired by the theme of time. When I think about time thoughts arise about how things have changed over the last two years. I have always been an artist . Since the age of five I would look at something and always question it. A young rebellious nature at heart did not always serve me well as a teenager. As I grew older,  it became a asset. I always asked " why not?" and if I was rejected I would ask for feedback to improve myself or those around me.

When I look at something I think how can I rearrange this to be successful? When I look at a object I think to myself " how can I make it look more interesting? "When I talk to someone what attributes can I see in them?  


My thoughts are to do what you love and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Nothing comes with out hard work. During the pandemic I worked two years on this painting. conducting zoom classes weekly and had private lessons.

 I express myself with color. Using bright bold colors to bring a smile to someone is my mission. With a introvert personality it is really with my art that I am able to express the joy I want the world to see in a time of change.

 Currently I am offering zoom and private classes. If you are looking for a change in 2022 please email or call me  to set up a time to speak and come to my studio for a private, group or zoom lesson.  What has also changed is I am going to people homes to conduct private lesson.
