I have been working in Pastel for over 40 years. I have tried other mediums but the texture and vibrancy of color that can be achieved with pastel has always captivated me.

I enjoy trying to recreate the beauty of God's creation, capturing

moments in time on my Easel. I enjoy painting landscapes, figures and portraits and murals.

I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio but moved to beautiful Naples, Florida in 2004 and have come to love the

beauty of Southwest Florida. There is so much inspiration here for an artist.

Maureen passed away in Dec., 2025.

She is missed by everyone she encountered on her journey. 

She was a longstanding board member. In her memory we will hold her place as one of our distinguished pastelists.
