I grew up in Englewood, NJ, graduated from Moore College of Art in Philadelphia, PA with a BFA in Illustration. Married Fred Briard in 1973, and worked for Brookdale Community College as an artist in the 1970's. Bought an old farmhouse in Howell (we're still there) and spent the last 28 years restoring it. Had three beautiful, talented daughters and am a grandmother of a six year old
adorable grandson. Spent the 80's freelancing my illustrations, and became a certified art and elementary teacher in 1996. Have spent the last 6 years developing the fine art of silk screen illustration, birds as my #1 subject and my family as well. Love working in my grape vineyard and canning jelly, but chickens are my very favorite animal. Love to visit Penn Yan, NY where we own another barn (former grape packing one), but don't get up there as often as I would like. I would also love to visit New Orleans, LA where my oldest daughter, Annie lives and works with her husband Ben and where my youngest daughter, Marie goes to college.
