The artist was born in 1940, and has been exhibiting her paintings internationally since the early 1970s. She lives in New York where she engages an ongoing conversation with art history, 19th-century Romantic painting, Abstract Expressionism, and Chinese painting. Her painting is both a conceptual act and an expression of an inner self via a mastery of technique; someone for whom head and heart and hand are all in play in the creation of each work.
