Your ProfileDeane grew up in Marblehead, Massachusetts near the ocean with beautiful old New England homes and wonderful gardens. She has always had an interest in painting with watercolor after her father started painting in that medium when he was 72 years old. Her art shows her interest and love of animals, gardens and the New England coast from Maine to Nantucket. Her work is on display in her studio at the Artists League of the Sandhills in Aberdeen, NC.

The Story Behind My AmericaA lot of people don’t realize that New Jersey is the Garden State. There are large forests, beautiful farms, lots of small quaint villages and lovely seaside communities along the Jersey Shore. My husband grew up on Tempe Wick near Morristown where George Washington wintered up the road. This old barn is a remnant of the past.
