A selection of the drawings made on-site in 2017 of the deconstruction of the 1930s-era Kosciuszko Bridge in NYC. These drawings were the inspiration for abstract paintings celebrating the bridge and those who built it.
The drawings and paintings were exhibited in my 2022 solo exhibtion, Material Memory, at Emerge Gallery in Saugerties, NY.

A selection of drawings made on-site at various abandoned factories of the 'rust belt': steel mills, blast furnaces, silk factories and glass factories. These drawings will be the inspiration for a series of abstract paintings celebrating the region and the people who built America.
This project was supported in part by a sabbatical award from Pratt Institute, and a faculty development grant from Parsons School of Design/The New School.
A selection of the location drawings made at various abandoned brick factory sites along the Hudson River in the Hudson Valley region of New York State. The drawings inspired a series of abstract paintings which were exhibited in my 2023 solo show, Material Memory, at Emerge Gallery in Saugerties, NY.
This project was begun during an art residency at the famed Woodstock-Byrdcliffe guild in 2022.

Boston, one of the great cities of the American North East. I had the privilege to complete a commission for The Newbury hotel, a re-imagination of the classic Ritz-Carlton. I spent a glorious week drawing the Boston Public Garden, Beacon Hill, and Newbury Street, and staying at a beautiful grand dame of a hotel. Sigh. Read more on my blog HERE.

New York's Central Park in the fall is perhaps one of the loveliest places on Earth. Several years ago I was awarded a commission by Louey Rubino design to create pen and ink drawings of this most famous landmark of the city, for the Mandarin Oriental Hotel.
As a native-born New Yorker, I never lose the enjoyment of spending time in this most elegant park.

In 2015 I had the opportunity to visit Cuba.
I spent time in Havana, a city of music and color and wonderful people, and in Viñales, the tobacco country.
I can’t wait to visit again.

The Lower East Side of Manhattan was a mecca for Italians and Eastern European immigrants coming to the US in the late 19th and early 20th century. Many of these newcomers to the city made a living selling food and goods from independent pushcarts. Essex Market was one of many open air pushcart markets in the city, until 1940, when then Mayor La Guardia created the indoor public market at the corner of Essex and Houston Street. As the years went on the countries of origin for the immigrants who made the Lower East Side their home changed, but the Essex Market remained a place to find the taste of home and gather as a community.
In 2019 the old market closed, and a brand new Essex Market opened up across the street. With more space, more vendors, and restaurants, the new market is better in many ways. But I’m glad I was able to document the crowded shelves and well-worn places of the old market a few months before it closed. It seemed to be the end of an era.
