Audrey currently works in her Manhattan studio. She works on commission, exclusively from photographs.

Portraits give a lot of information, the cropping, the light, the facial expression, the clothing, the background, all tell a story. Audrey is particularly interested in the beauty of aging and the face as a landscape.

Her portraits are perceptual representations based on her photographs. They are original visual documents of a person in a moment in time. Audrey’s goal is to create a large group of portraits that when viewed together, will have their own story to tell about aging in America.
