Photography has been my retirement enjoyment for the past 13 or 14 years. I have always been taking photos as long as I can remember. I think the passion came from my mother who took many slide photos in her travels. However, years of employment and child rearing left little time for dedication to the art. In 2005, while in Florida for the winter, I noticed an ad for the convention of the Professional Photographer's of America and that started my current destiny. I have been included in many juried shows including the Frederick Remington, Thousand Island Art Center, Lake Placid Art Center, The Gallery at Lake Saint Lawrence Arts, Massena Art Group, SLC Art shows and have sold in most of them. I am also currently doing custom framing on a large and continuing basis. It is an interesting and functional offshoot of my business. I look forward to continuing my passion for many years to come.

I have always had a passion for Art and have been creative in one capacity or another my whole life. I used to dream about making pottery when I was a little girl making mud pies and dishes that would not endure the test of time. Once, I even drew a diagram of my future home studio.

After earning a bachelor degree in visual arts, I decided it was time to really focus my efforts on my creative side and start working towards my dream of being a potter one day. But Pottery is not a cheap art to pursue, it's an investment in time, energy and money. So for a while I explored other mediums, oil painting, and working with stain glass. All the while, never loosing sight of my dream to learn about pottery. Then I decided to take a pottery class at Blu Seed Studios in Saranac Lake; this was about nine years ago. As I had believed I would, I loved it. At that point I started working towards building my own home pottery studio, which I have had now for about six years.

Creating Pottery is a lot of work, it takes time, and I feel there is alway more to explore and I have a long way before I would call myself a 'master Potter', but I am enjoying the process, and have learned a lot in this journey, and I never tire of building new things and trying new techniques. There is something magical about the process of creating with clay, always something more to learn and explore. I sometime think of that little girl who who made mud pies, cakes and dishes and was disappointed when the rain came and washed them away. Those days are long gone and I can now call myself a Potter.
