Born in 1934 to parents of Swiss & Danish ancestry, I received an early introduction to working with wood from my father Stanley. From my mother Frieda, who painted the faces on watches before emigrating from Switzerland, I inherited her artistry and attention to detail.

While working in residential construction in my younger days I always looked for newer, innovative ways to work. As I searched I became increasingly fascinated by the joinery techniques employed by the cabinetmakers of old.

As my interest grew I gravitated more and more to designing and fabricating one-of-a-kind pieces of solid wood furniture. Each commissioned piece is lovingly crafted with an eye for detail in the studio in rural Minot Maine.

I was born in 1943. The first 18 years of my life were spent in New Hampshire. My earliest inspiration came from an art teacher who travelled from school to school. She taught art and music, and Monday afternoons were for singing and Tuesdays we created art.

In the 1960's I enrolled in The Famous Artists Schools in Westport, CT, where perhaps Norman Rockwell or Ben Stahl critiqued my work.

There was a break from art as parenting became my focus, but after moving to Maine in 1982 I took lessons from a local artist.

While I believe some techniques can be taught, many an artists skill is inherent. My father and his father were both artistically gifted. My grandfather's medium was oils, and inspires me.
Now my husband/partner and I work together to create one-of-a-kind pieces that combine his love of wood and my passion for painting.

Together our goal is to create pieces that come from our hearts.
