She calls her process HeArt Therapy and has sold several pieces to friends and private clients and enjoys seeing others take pleasure in her work.

About Ewing’s Featured Artist Program

The Ewing Arts Commission and the Art Has No Boundaries organization partnered to showcase Ewing Township artists at Ewing Town Hall in 2016. Establishing a monthly display of local art work, the art installation features two to three dimensional art on the second floor of the Municipal building.   Participating artists are affiliated with the Ewing Arts Commission, a municipal body that seeks to promote the arts in our community, and the Art Has No Boundaries organization, a group that provides art programming at the Ewing Senior Community Center.  
Local artists interested in having their art showcased at Town Hall should contact the Ewing Arts Commission at ewingartdisplay@gmail.com.
