Bio Bits

I live in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania with my husband, Don Cerrato, and our six cats. I have one son, Drew, who graduated from The Citadel in May 2010.

When I'm not working on a new artwork or engaged in a project for a client, I enjoy cooking, Pilates, walking, and reading.

Work-wise

I am a freelance artist, illustrator and designer, garnering most of my work from one phase of the fashion industry or another. Despite that fact, I often find myself working across a wide range of markets for a very diverse list of clients.

Organically speaking

I like to think of my work as quirky - with a dark side - and I am always striving to push the viewer's imagination to the outer edges. Popular subjects include women's issues, human rights, globalization, communication, and the complexities of human relationships.

With such diversity in my work, I am often led to work with a variety of media. That media frequently includes the creation of digital graphics, acrylics and oils, conte crayon, oil and dry pastels, charcoal and chalk.

Press & Publications

Selections of my artwork , graphics, poetry, and short stories have appeared in various galleries and publications around the globe and across the WWW, and were most notably included in the 1999 Biennale del Arte Contemporania, held in Florence, Italy and the 1999-2001 MAC 21 International Art Exhibitions in Marbella, Spain.
