My Bragg Hollow Studio, Rhinebeckright in the middle of the quaint and historical village of Rhinebeck, NY in the picturesque Hudson Valley in NY State. I am often asked for studio visits by first time visitors who have seen my work somewhere or collectors and friends who have been following my career for some time. I welcome and enjoy such visits whether they result in a sale or not. I love sharing my work!

"Little Black Dresses" is a composition of three dancing women all in shimmering light that reveals the various shades of black: green, blue, purple but all the little black "coctail dress". The gyrations of the dancers makes the viewer feel the beat. The artist applies her paint with the palette brush giving the whole a moasic effect. -

Snow often lingers too long. This blooming plant in my studio inspired this painting. -

Spring brings a rainbow of color to my iris garden. Each day is different--new, fresh buds opening and older blooms wrinkling and fading to a luscious caramel brown. My favorite way of gathering these regal flowers is in a large vase.
