Greene, a Lenox native who returned to the Berkshires from
the Washington-Baltimore area after a long hiatus, paints in-between her
full-time development job with the Norman Rockwell Museum. Her work has been accepted into juried
exhibits in Annapolis, MD and Alexandria, VA and was represented by several
galleries in the that area. In 2009, The
Marketplace Café in Sheffield hosted a solo show of her paintings.
A graduate of Vassar College, majoring in anthropology,
Greene worked most of her life in the Midwest and Washington – Baltimore
corridor. She also spent a
transformative nine months camping across Africa, and two months in Nepal, trekking
and camping in Everest National Park.
Despite these world adventures or perhaps because of these
experiences, Greene’s paintings reflect her intimate relationship with the
local landscape and the everyday objects of her home and personal collections. Appreciating the north light and familiar
landscapes that inspired her to paint as a child, she returned to her childhood
roots in the Berkshires where she shares her Victorian home with her boyfriend
and two cats.
