Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
In the dark early days of the pandemic, we gathered as a community: all isolated in our separate studios at night, some of us pouring a glass of wine, all of us adjusting or laptops or phones to get just the right angle. We were artists - some familiar, some not - who belonged to the same figure drawing and painting group. Since we could no longer meet, one of the models made the incredibly gracious offer to pose “virtually” for us. It’s taken some time for everyone to figure it out but from the start it was a balm to our lonely, creative souls. I wanted to capture these moments live, with thick rich oil painted on my palette and a blank canvas in front of me. The figure sits isolated, but like the rest of us she’s framed with glowing rectangles - all of us connected, watching and creating. The painting is framed tastefully in a white wood frame and is ready to hang.

I am an artist and art conservator, born in the San Francisco Bay Area, but now living in Vancouver, Canada. I have worked as a Paintings Conservator for many years, and through positions at several museums (National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, SFMOMA and the Art Gallery of Ontario) I have developed an intimate knowledge and appreciation of artist techniques and materials. Health issues related to use of solvents as a conservator for many years, has led me to focus on creating my own art - something that I have always practiced, but that now I can give my full dedication to. Given my technical background, I am often drawn to historical techniques and unique materials. I enjoy the challenge of trying to recreate traditionally difficult visual effects such as opalescence, water reflection, refraction and transparency. As someone who has lived and worked in several locations (including the US, France, Denmark, Hong Kong and France) I am deeply interested in the theme of transformation. This is visible in my works that explore the transformative change that glass undergoes as it is tossed by time and tide to become sea glass. Also, my underwater paintings explore how this cool blue alternate realm beneath the surface transforms light and form. My figurative art is informed by the artists of the San Francisco Bay Area Figurative Movement, particularly Elmer Bischoff and Joan Brown. I was lucky enough to study the practice of art at UC Berkeley when these were artists living, teaching and working all around us. A highlight of my conservation career was repairing a large scale Joan Brown work while working at SFMOMA. I currently spend time with my husband and my wonderful and willful young adult children. If I am not painting, I can often be found on the waters of the Sea to Sky Corridor, on my paddle board with my two crazy (but well-balanced!) rescue dogs.
