After graduating from Smith College, Victoria worked for four years on Wall Street while taking art and photography night classes at the New School. It was there that she learned how to hand-color black and white photographs. Still in their 20’s, she and her husband decided to leave the Big Apple for the Green Mountains. Vermont vintage barns and bucolic surroundings have been the subject of Victoria’s artwork. Victoria’s photographs are shot with black and white film, printed on black and white paper in her darkroom, dried and then painted with oil paints. This technique is not new - it is the way photographs were colored before the invention of color film. Each of her photographs is individually hand- colored and a limited edition. Victoria’s artwork has been displayed throughout Vermont and New England including: the Hood Museum of Art, NH; the Alternative Museum, NY; the Fitchburg Museum of Art, MA; Cambridge Art Association, MA; the Southern Vermont Art Center. Her work has been published in Vermont Life, Vermont Magazine, Yankee Magazine, the Boston Globe Magazine, Boston Globe Travel Section, Reader’s Digest and the Washington Post.
