The Harpswell Studio was created toward the client’s desire to have a cube in the woods as a painting studio/retreat . It is a one of a kind design, gathering an energy of inspiration in the midst of Maine’s deep forest.  A basic cube was the starting point, although the finished product takes on angles, peeks, and corners with a hint of recklessness. Wonderful execution by Petra Simmons Design.

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
