Biography
Born in Hoboken in 1954 and raised in northern New Jersey, Alicia’s fascination with color began in 1976 as a Contemporary Arts major at Ramapo College of New Jersey, with a focus on drawing, painting and design. Following college and while working in New York design showrooms as an assistant buyer, she decided to pursue the concentration of fabric design and enrolled in evening classes at Parsons. During study there, and later as a freelance textile designer, her love of color, texture and shape were translated into beautiful prints for a Three Worlds Design, a New York Home Furnishings Design Studio.
In 2005, the artist began to paint full time. Since then her work has been exhibited in regional, national and museum juried shows and galleries in New England, New Jersey and New York, and are in private collections in CA, MA, NY & NJ. Alicia resides in NJ and paints from her studios there, and on Cape Cod, MA, overlooking the bay.

"Clint Watson has made it very easy for artists to bring their work to the public.
Obviously the internet is an important marketing component for the artist.
For a luddite like me FASO is the way to go.
There is always a support team available, we get to talk to real people to solve our web site needs.
I don't have the skills or time to develop a website. I should paint not spend time on a computer."
"A website is one of the most valuable tools to market paintings for artists of our time.
I recommend FASO to every artist who is still struggling with all the difficulties in creating and maintaining their website.
FASO is so well designed it will show your paintings professionally while still being extremely user friendly.
I feel bad for all the artists not using FASO yet."
"My art career has really been growing by leaps and bounds since I've been doing more with the website.
So thanks for dragging me into the high tech world kicking and screaming. Now all I need is a secretary"
"Your software is amazing! Thank you.
I just put a new painting onto my web site and it was so easy.
have made the job a piece of cake. Good job."
