Painting plein-air is my joy, and watercolor is my favorite medium. When I’m not painting outdoors, I’m working as a full-time commissioned painter and watercolor instructor for various institutions such as the West Hartford Art League and the Southington Community Cultural Arts Center.

I graduated Magna *** Laude from the Hartford Art School and furthered my exploration of painting and education during a residency at the Farmington Valley Arts Center in 2018.

A wonderful day for our first-ever Creative Escape!

4 workshops, 3 snack breaks, 2 gallery exhibits, and 1 more Escape are planned for September. Stay tuned!

Enjoy an evening of artmaking guided by professional artists in a fun and engaging way, surrounded by the creative environment of Fisher Gift Gallery!!

Upcoming Exhibits

Our Summer Community Calls Exhibit focuses on a fascination with the majesty of the sea and its marine life inhabitants. Submissions can be 2-D or 3-D work in a variety of styles and media inspired by the ocean and the creatures within, including drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, and mixed media.

Work must be delivered to Fisher Gallery by June 28 during regular business hours.
