The story has become more about the begging’s of my Art

A harvest of ideas I would accumulate in the years I spent getting my Bachelor degree.

“To Harvest is to gather… A crop or maybe knowledge”

Experiencing the late summer potato harvest.  (Google Aroostook County Maine)

In the 1980’s when I was attending college, I was able to start a new part of my life. A place I had never experience with my cultural Italian traditions being put to the side. I started a new adventure… Hiking, learning, creating Art, fishing camping, singing in the college coffee house, yes I played the guitar.. Past tense HA!

In the 1800 Aroostook, the northern most county in the USA bordered by Canada a little town of 4,000 peeps - University of Maine in Fort Kent

“My art in Maine revolved around mixing technical, traditional art supplies with earthly natural things”

Hand made things and Mother Nature’s things - Mediums; Water color paints, Wood blocks, Ink, Charcoal

Gathering;  Mosses, conifer cones, Woodland flowers for pressing in my mixed media water colors, Barn wood

Chamomile tea collected and brewed

Having a garden is so rewarding, just pickled some Asian Carrots with rice vinegar and ginger, Italian pepper with garlic and oregano
