Frequently Asked Questions

For as long as I can remember, I have always felt the need to create. As a child, I spent countless hours experimenting with scissors, crayons, glue and a whole host of found materials. It never occurred to me that I was making art. I just knew I was having fun. Although my supplies and techniques have changed over the years, my need to create remains.

While I have lived in Maine the better part of my life, I grew up the youngest of three in Sunapee, New Hampshire. Both my father and paternal grandmother were elementary school principals. My mother, maternal grandmother, aunt and several great aunts were all teachers. Having come from such a long line of educators, it seemed most natural to pursue a like career. I received a degree in Art Education. I have taught art at a variety of levels for many years, and continue doing so on a part time basis. I also enjoy visiting schools to talk with children about the process of writing and illustrating children's book. In my quiet hours, I can usually be found in my studio, a place where I am most grateful to be spending time.
