Drawing and sketching have been my favorite pastime since I was a teenager in Hungary. I attended an art high school followed by two years of studying pottery making. My career path took me away from art, but I never stopped having the need to create. I worked as a Systems Analyst in manufacturing and retail. I returned to school for my BS in Nursing and worked as an RN for several years. Using my nursing and System Analyst experiences, I merged those two interests and worked creating nursing software in a hospital setting.
As my personal and professional life allowed me to have more time, I started taking online classes in drawing and painting. Later, I attended classes in pastel, watercolor, and acrylic. Lately my focus is acrylic. I continue to take classes and strive to paint every day, enjoying the wide panorama the Cape has to offer.
I find great satisfaction knowing my art may find a new home and bring peace and pleasure to someone’s daily life. As a painter, it is my goal to capture my surrounding as I experience it. My topics are not limited to landscape. I also love painting animals, unusual buildings, everyday objects I see, and people.
I moved to Cape Cod full time a few years ago. The stunning landscape provides me with endless possibilities for subjects. I am fortunate to live in a community with an abundance of artistic support that allows me to share my art. I exhibit at several local art associations including Sandwich Art Alliance, Plymouth Art Center and Cotuit Center for the Arts.
