Art is an extension of my soul. I hope to reach and inspire others and drive emotion for the viewer by being present emotionally in my art.

Abstract paintings. Abstract landscapes and abstract self portraits.
Where do you find inspiration?From nature, from my emotions and my life experiences as a single mother of 4 children. And of course from other artists.
What would you do with $25,000?Donate it. I started a nonprofit 7 years ago with 3 other residents in my town of Westfield NJ. We purchased the defunct closed down local Hometown movie theater and we have worked with architects, engineers and arts consultants to turn it into a community arts center. A place for live performances, gallery spaces and an education center. www.rialtowestfield.org We are waiting to hear from the NJEDA CAFE grant for approval fir $39M in tax credits and then we will need to raise $9M more.
