Plein Air Painting: Here's my easel at Lilac Land in Pelham, where I painted alongside fellow members of the Amherst Plein Air Society. The mild temperatures and slow spring have made it possible to paint outside very early this year. What a gift it's been to carefully observe the changes in the landscape as it wakes up for another growing season.

Scholarship Award from CT Pastel Society:
In March I was honored and excited to be selected as the recipient of the Connecticut Pastel Society's first-ever Workshop Scholarship.
I traveled to Newport, Rhode Island for a three-day workshop with Master Pastelist and President of the International Association Of Pastel Societies, Liz Haywood-Sullivan. It was an amazing experience to learn from such a gifted painter and wonderful person!
