Recently retired after a rich career mentoring teenagers in the art studio, I am energized to turn more of my attention to my own art practice including the launch of Cartwheel Studio at Artist Markets around Maine.

With a nod to the playful gymnastics of my youth, the shop name captures the spirit of my handmade artworks — colorful paper garlands, painted paper and wire mobiles, mixed media sculptures, patchwork tapestries — which twirl and spin, dancing on air.
