  Our business is run by our family, my husband and I, if he went to paint outdoors I would take care of the Gallery, if he took care of the Gallery, I went to the beach with our two children, Jay and Justina. We had good times and beautiful memories of Ogunquit, Maine. In 1979 we moved to Florida and have visited since that time to see our wonderful friends in Maine and New Hampshire.  Below is our Gallery in Ogunquit, Maine where we spent over 20 years going back and forth from Florida to Maine for the summer months, our children were brought up there, we enjoyed our time in Maine for the summer and the winters in Florida. We got to know some wonderful people which became our best friends and met so many of our collectors. Our son Jay has gone to heaven and our daughter Justina has given us three beautiful grandchildren we enjoy today.
