Hello and Welcome

The glass garage door has been installed! It leads from our kitchen out to our deck in our 1920s Garrison Colonial meets Mid Century bungalow home. It’s a fixer upper. It has character. It is home. Home to my family of 4. Home to my business as a working artist…

The Glass Garage Door in Action!

I’m a classically trained painter working in a contemporary way. I’m inspired by natural light, unusual color combinations, overgrown gardens, coffee, conversations, any work of art produced at any time, talent, Europe, Chicago, fabulous vintage chairs, and my two children (aka “The Sunshines”). I am the one on vacation who drags my family into every cathedral, church, and museum so that we can check out all of the art and architecture. No relaxing on the beach for us…there’s too much art to see! I also have a passion for unique chairs. If I owned an empty warehouse, I’d fill it with chairs from the 50s, 60s, and early 70s!

Please come along as I write about my work, my home and little bit about my family…!
