ARTIST’S RÉSUMÉ  AND STATEMENT

Résumé – Click Here

I began painting in France and my work still bears a French influence.  To describe my work I’ll borrow the words of Carrie Moyer: “My painting is where Helen Frankenthaler meets Fernand Leger”.  Now my paintings are enhanced by my husband’s illumination.

My paintings convey a myriad of my experiences. Monica Tarantino’s poems always provoke ideas. An unexpected source of images and titles for paintings is my work as an art therapist at the 80th Street Residence for the Memory Impaired on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. I enjoy Gertrude Stein-like conversations with the residents. When I praised Cynthia’s drawing she said to me, “There are down feathers inside this train. The train is barreling down!”

In my recent work, I’ve collaborated with Robin Russell to incorporate fluorescent and LED lighting.
