Artist/Writer/Photographer
The Maine artist is a proud Franco-American who loves living in a state that offers four seasons. The north light we experience in this state brings out the rich colors
by which I attributes the color palette I uses. She is continuously inspired by a circle of talented family artists and en plein air friends, who are her most valued critics. She and her husband Jean are the parents of three children and five grandchildren She is the founder of GreenWood Gallery of Maine, located in Auburn at 998 Old Danville Rd., Auburn, ME
