Born in England, Georgina graduated from the Slade School of Fine Art, University College, London in 1983. She travelled to the USA as an apprentice in a summer stock theater program in Massachusetts, and then later taught art at a children’s summer camp. Here she met her husband, Bill. Together, they built a tiny home (without electricity) in the Maine woods on a quiet dirt road and raised two children. Their home has expanded to include a workshop for Bill and a studio for Georgina.

After homeschooling her two children, growing vegetable gardens, raising pigs, sheep, chickens, geese and turkeys, she returned to school to get a graduate degree which enabled her to eventually become a Maine public school teacher. She retired from teaching in 2024 and is now able to be a painter and printmaker full time.

Georgina has exhibited work at Shepard’s Farm Preserve, the University of Southern Maine Lewiston Campus and been a vendor in the Common Ground Fair craft tents, as well as numerous other arts events.

Her passionate interest in art led her to obtain an MFA Intermedia from the University of Maine, Orono in 2017.

Georgina is profoundly grateful for the welcome that her community extended to her as a newcomer. As a way of returning this generosity, she can be found volunteering with her therapy dog Ty at local schools and Stephens Hospital in Norway, Maine.
