Artist Statement:
"In the balance of family life and profession, family comes first.
It wasn't until the children were in school full time that I returned
to a love of painting people that eventually developed into a career in
portraiture. My time of teaching, followed by full-time motherhood, proved
to be valuable background for becoming a children's portrait painter.
Born and raised in Detroit, MI, I have a BA from Houghton College in Western
New York State (Class of '67). Over the course of some 36 years of marriage
I have lived in Iran, Michigan, Colorado, and North Carolina. From 1986
to 2001 I enjoyed a studio at Artspace - a community of working studios
and galleries open to the public in Historic City Market, downtown Raleigh,
North Carolina. From 1980 to the present, I have also maintained a private
studio in my home.
Selected professional highlights include:
" Signature membership in The Pastel Society of America
" Memberships in the Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club, Degas Pastel
Society, Artspace Artists Association, American Society of Portrait Artists,
The American Society of Classical Realism, Christians in the Visual Arts,
Fellowship of Christians in Portraiture
" Commissioned and non-commissioned paintings in corporate and private
collections nationwide including: IBM, RJR Nabisco, Nations Bank, Wake
Medical Center, General Electric Mortgage Insurance, NC League of Savings
Institutions, North Carolina State University and John Deere Corp.
" Artwork published in the 1996 and 1998 editions of The Best of
Pastel, Rockport Pub.; and the 1996 edition of The Best of Oil, Rockport
Pub.
