About Dreamweaves
Fractured Landscapes​
​I call these works "Dreamweaves" because they are daydreams grounded in the rhythyms of nature- of land, sea and sky. I love the places at the edge where those elements mix and run together at different times and in different ways. Back in the studio I make sheets and sheets of paper full of the colors of those places and my experience and memory of them. Then I cut them apart into long strips, and weave those colorful remnants into my sense of the place, a tangible artifact of many fleeting moments.
And About Me...
I grew up on the Connecticut shore, earned a BFA from Syracuse University, and worked in the NYC home furnishings industry as a designer, colorist and print specialist before returning to CT to raise 2 kids, 3 dogs, 2 cats, a few fish and a small lobster. In addition to creating my own art, I worked as an independent creative consultant to local non-profit groups, businesses, and municipalities to foster connections and opportunities to integrate the arts into our communities. I enjoyed curating and producing pop-up galleries, artisan shops, and topical exhibits, including 2019's "Uncovered: What She Hides," 2020's "People Politics, Planet," and 2021's "Vanishing Species,Vanishing Murals." As an elected member of the local legislative body, I chaired our Library, Museum and Arts Committee. I'm proud to have been a Board Member of both the Ridgefield Guild of Artists and the Artists Collective of Westport. Now living in Palm Beach County FL, I show my work at some of the country's top-rated art festivals across Florida.
