In 2012, she founded Arts Escape, a Southbury nonprofit devoted to adult arts education — because she had seen firsthand what happens when people are given permission to create. That same transformative pull eventually drew her into her own studio practice, where painting became her language and identity, emotion, and human connection became her subject matter.

Her work has been gaining notice. In 2024, her pastel Tethered Beauties was accepted into the National Pastel Society show, followed by Italian Siblings in 2025. That same year, her mixed media piece Somewhere Out There took Best in Show at the “Art at the Meeting House” exhibition in Roxbury — a fitting title for work that reaches toward something just beyond words.

Becky has shown at Five Points Gallery’s Small Works show, the CT+6 show in West Hartford (two years running), and most recently, Floral Kaleidoscope appeared in the Mix Master Exhibit at the Mattatuck Museum in 2026. She continues to push into new techniques and materials, driven by a belief that the best work is always just ahead. She lives in Woodbury, Connecticut, with her husband, Paul.
