Artist Info

I like to joke that I was brainwashed into being an artist. Really, I chose to do the thing that made me happiest as a teenager. My parents were both artists and I didn’t have any other role models - hence the brainwashing. In high school, my art teachers were very supportive and I found my love of photography in the Santa Barbara City College darkroom, where I was getting high school credit for my art classes. This was in the 1980's and I would go on to art school at the California College of the Arts and the San Francisco Art Institute where I studied painting, photography, printmaking, filmmaking and performance art. Since then, I have woven a life that is made of art, spending as much time outdoors as I can, building community whenever possible and satisfying my unceasing wanderlust through road trips and travel. Photography has been a constant companion throughout. Now, I live in northeastern Maine, in a rural agricultural area. I offer my work through occasional shows and teach creative photography workshops online. I am open to commissions and assignments.
