Artist Statement

Jean retired as a librarian and library manager in 2009 and relocated from the Washington, D.C. area to Sussex County Delaware.  Jean was drawn to Delaware by the small town atmosphere and the natural beauty found in the ocean and the woods.  Many of her paintings depict the beauty found in local Delaware scenes.

Jean is continuing her art studies begun in the early 1980s and has taken classes with Linda Minkowisky at Wilmington University, Sandy Moore at Southern Delaware Academy of Lifetime Learning and with Jack Wiberg at the Rehoboth Art League.  She is a member of the Board of Directors of Delaware by Hand, Inc.  Jean exhibited some of her work at the Milton Historical Society’s Holly Festival, the Rehoboth Art League gallery and the Seaford Delaware Public Library.
