About
the Artist: I began to paint with
words at an early age; later I fell in love with the letter form’s
infinite variations. Combining my love of words and the images
they produce with the joy of color and design, I found myself drawn to
the discipline of the monoprint; its physicality, lack of boundaries
and limitless potential for interpretation, it is often frustrating,
frequently inspiring, occasionally satisfying, always challenging. I
frequently incorporate monoprints into miniature unique artist’s books,
limned with a calligraphed quote or verse.
Calligraphy commissioned by a New England Lutheran
church, paintings and monoprints in private collections in the US,
England and Japan and in the Boston Public Library’s American
Printmaking Collection, and as cover art for a literary journal, span a
lifetime of artistic intensity and diligence.
I inherited my artistic talent from my mother, an
artist in her own right and my first and most ardent fan, who
constantly nurtured both my art and my writing.
