Hello, painting friend, I've been passionate about drawing, painting, and creating since forever. Although I am largely self-taught, I've developed my skills through decades of self-study, diverse art courses, and associations with other talented artists. My heartfelt desire is to help others benefit from my experience of more than 40 years as a professional designer, teacher, and author of art instruction publications.
Through my online classes and tutorials, I wish to help you develop a foundation of basic art principles and appreciate your unique creative style. You'll discover the joy of the artmaking process and the freedom of painting without overthinking. I've produced a library of fun painting exercises, step-by-step slide presentations, videos, and digital resources to help you advance your skills and reach your artistic goals.
For many years, I enjoyed exhibiting and teaching at locations around the United States and internationally, as well as at my home studio, Cranberry Painter Decorative Arts, in a charming vintage farmhouse with nature and saltwater views of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. My husband Andre and I now reside in a townhome near the beach, where we continue to enjoy our favorite pastimes - serving others, exploring nature, creating beautiful art, and sharing our love with painters of all skill levels. Thank you for joining me on the winding path of this exciting art-filled adventure. Let's paint together soon!
Painterly yours,
