These boots make me feel like dancing! I absolutely loved painting these boots. I pretty much painted non-stop for a day and a half on this canvas. The boots are depicted larger than life. Painting big keeps me from tripping over ant-hills of tiny busy details. And up close, the image achieves a certain abstraction. Enough talk - time to go dancing!

Painting is my passion. I’m wild about the act of painting and the subject of the female figure.

My path to this perfect artistic place was through folk art born of memories of my New England childhood. This art I sold to the White House, Panasonic, Toyota, Bigelow Tea, the Mayor of Boston and to clients of galleries in New York, Boston, Nantucket, Charleston, San Francisco and Los Angeles. My art was featured twice on the Today Show and in two national magazines.

Now I paint about strong women. In Greek mythology, women were as powerful as men. They were gods. I like to think, and my collectors seem to, that my painted women are their descendants.
