She has her own studio as well as was shown in several Cape cod galleries.  Her mermaid/whale pieces have been published into posters & prints.

This is a fairly large painting done on an antique ironing board.   Its titled 'Hide and Sneak' and shows 2 country cats staring while a mouse brings a piece of popcorn to his mouse hole.   Their eyes will captivate you.

Very whimsical yet warm piece.


This measures 44 1/2 inches by 12 inches.  Someone spent a lot of time making all the parts and pieces to put together this nice looking Steam Locomotive and matching Tender Car. Mostly made of tin, with some parts cut from wood, this is more like a large and impressive work of art than a model of an old west Steam engine. The set measures over 36 inches tip to tail and is over 7 inches wide. The dull black painted finish is worn a bit, but that just makes it look even better as i see it. Use it inside or out, decorated for holidays and special occasions. A super gift for any train enthusiast. One of a kind.... Guaranteed!

They have black box frames.  These are repoductions and were made in China.  Just right to add to a picture wall of folk art.  Sand Dollar Hand painted with a lovely covered bridge scene. It looks so nice all over the top of the sand dollar with it's own unique shape. The colors and detail are just great.It is signed Sepella. Sand dollars are usually very delicate and this one has done very well, it has one small chip under the rim and the back has the normal discoloration from being out of the sea so long. It is just lovely and sold as found.
