Paula returned to her art in 2003 after a lapse of way too many years, back to a passion she knew would haunt her until she paid it some attention. But a passion her busy life as a journalist in New York City didn't allow. "Art work takes a lot of time and energy, but my job as a reporter for Sports Illustrated for thirty years, took more. That left minus zero." And so when she pared back her writing ways, Paula decided it time to bite the bullet and join the workshops available to her on the East End of Long Island, now that her second home was fast becoming her first in Montauk. "It wasn't the easy segue that I had imagined. I thought I simply could spill over all those millions of words I had been writing into painted images, and in a somewhat respectable fashion," she adds. After all, art had always been easy for her to render.
