“I often paint in Lanesville in Gloucester, Massachusetts on Cape Ann in the same exact place by the sea where my sisters and brothers, children and grandchildren have come to visit, learn to swim in the granite ‘bathtub’, and enjoy the Beauty of the land throughout these past many years. The huge rock formations, the scratches and marks on them, and the shadows cast by the sun cascading on them are nearly the same as I remember when I first laid eyes on this sea sanctuary at 5 years old ...

It is exhilarating to paint -with my feet sometimes in the water- as I work just ahead of the incoming or outgoing tide. The wind, the mist, and the sun all get mixed up in the orchestration of the paint’s quickened movement. In turn, the paintings become love poems.”
