Artist Bio

​

My paintings are featured by organizations, businesses, private individuals, and several galleries throughout New England.  Primary sales sources are specialty shops, hotels, spas, offices, online marketing, and juried handicraft shows. Right As Rain Eclectic products include wearable art, accessories, gifts, and home décor. Commissioned assignments are a joy, as I enjoy working with collectors to bring their creative vision to life on canvas, wall, paper, furniture, and fabric.
