I'm an #artist north of #Boston, MA telling stories about light and atmosphere with oil paints. I draw inspiration from the coastline, salt marshes, and forests, #painting places that are both remembered and imagined.

Currently working on seascape paintings, landscapes inspired by springtime walks in the woods, and my marshlands series.

As a lawyer-turned-artist, I'm also slowly defacing my law dictionary with charcoal sketches.
