I’m a graduate of Cooper Union in NYC, where I received a BFA in sculpture. Graduate studies in jewelry and ceramics were done at the State University of New York in New Paltz. As a studio artist with concentrations in enamel jewelry and sculpture, I have exhibited nationally and internationally in galleries and select craft fairs. My fine art practice encompasses figurative sculpture (clay and bronze) and wall collages (handmade paper and cast paper). My collages are a mixture of two and three-dimensional work. All of my work is an exploration of time, form, and space. I feel blessed to live in the beautiful Hudson Valley, with my husband, the luthier Paul Hartmann.
Please reach out to me for additional images and information, as well as sales and original commission requests.
