Always interested in all forms of creative artwork, Doris started painting seriously after attending a watercolor workshop while vacationing in Stone Harbor, New Jersey in 1978. This workshop sparked her interest in the watercolor medium and led to many more workshop trips with instruction by well-known artists in which she was able to explore the many faces of watercolor. She was attracted especially to watercolor because of its luminous quality and versatility. After retiring as a teacher she has devoted much of her time to painting and developing a series of limited edition prints of Avalon and Stone Harbor, New Jersey, where Doris and her husband have a home. Doris loves the sea and finds that watercolor lends itself well to depicting the ever-changing atmospheric conditions found at the shore. Her love for the area can be seen in her paintings. In addition to her prints she has created note cards and Christmas cards from her paintings.

Doris also paints subjects other than shore scenes and especially enjoys painting floral's. During the summer season Doris exhibits her work at several art and craft shows in the Stone Harbor-Avalon area. She has been represented in juried art shows in Reading and at the shore. Her work can be found in private and corporate collections throughout the country. She is represented by Ocean Gallery in Stone Harbor and Avalon.

Examples of her limited edition prints are shown in the gallery. All prints are reproduced on high quality heavy-weight paper. The giclee' print on 100% rag watercolor paper. For more information or order please contact Doris by mail or phone (610)373-3980.
