Imagine my surprise when I opened my Hudson Hub Times recently and found the Discover Hudson 2016 magazine inside – with my artwork on the cover! The magazine has a well-written and beautifully designed article titled “Art On The Green” about the artists in town. They interviewed Mary Kay Haneline, Kathy Johnson (of Hudson Fine […]

One of the joys of sharing a studio with other artists is having the opportunity to work together. As we have come to know each other’s styles and inspiration, we discovered that we have a common love of nature, and that inspiration takes many forms in our work. With that common ground, plus a nod to the […]
