An Abstract Artist Returns Home
After decades as a successful graphic designer
and marketing communications director
in the mad-paced Southern California business landscape,
I turned my attention to a new adventure and a new career: fine art.
Aware I was a "late in life" emerging artist, I combined retirement abroad
with a move to Central America to begin my art journey.
Amazingly, recognition and sales took off!
Seeking a larger market,
I spent years establishing myself on the international art stage
in the beautiful, colorful, antique city of
San Miguel de Allende -- Mexico's art colony and culture capital.

The Covid-19 Pandemic brought me back home to
Irvine, California, where I rode out the pandemic and responded
to life's challenges, not just in my life, but my husband's life as well.
It is now time to re-focus on that which feeds me: art.
Process, materiality and physicality are what speak to me.
Color, pattern and texture are my vocabulary.
I currently choose to work in acrylic, cold wax/oil and
the encaustic paint mediums.
