About me

I taught art at a Catholic high school for twenty six years, and I paint watercolors of the Irish coast every summer when I visit my cousins in Clare. On Wednesdays I play bridge at a friend's house in Bernardsville, where I live, and I have for longer than I like to admit.

So families can book me for either. For watercolor I bring paper, brushes and a travel palette, and we paint something from your own window or an old photo. Nobody needs talent, just water and a little patience. For bridge I teach the basics with practice hands and play as your fourth.

I come in from Bernardsville, so homes 20 miles or more away see a small travel fee. My students say I am encouraging but honest. If a painting is muddy, I will tell you, and then show you how to fix it.
