Biography
Nancy has been working in watercolor since she was a teenager. Although not formally trained, she has taken workshops from nationally acclaimed artists like Frank Webb, Charles Read, and Diane Faxon; and has studied at the Art Students League in New York. She favors seascapes, and landscapes as subjects, but also does interiors and still life studies.
In her hometown of Greenwich, Connecticut, Nancy has received awards from local art associations and had numerous one-man shows at local galleries. Her work is in private collections in the United States and the Bahamas, and appears in the book LOVE AND RESPONSIBILITY, THE DAWN DAVIES COLLECTION, which is a composite of Bahamian painters.
As a native of Western Michigan, Nancy grew up on the water and began her lifelong love of seascapes, boats and the woods. From her cottage on the shores of Lake Michigan as well as from her travels in Europe, Asia and Africa, she derives much inspiration.
Nancy fell in love with the Bahamas on her first trip to Nassau over twenty years ago. Since then, she has been inspired by the sea, the architecture, and the Out-Islands of the Bahamas. In January 2015, she had a one man show at the Doongalik Gallery, Nassau, New Providence, and at CAB, Nassau, Bahamas in March 2022. She has also shown her work at the Gerald Peters Gallery in Southampton, NY in 2015, and at Images of Old Greenwich CT in January 2024.
Nancy divides her time between Nassau, Connecticut - where she raised her family - and her native Michigan.
