I have always been fascinated by color, shape, line and pattern.  Over time, I filled margins of notebooks and reams of paper with doodles and drawings.  From the sidelines, I greatly admired those involved in the artistic adventure.   I collected untold numbers of magazines and art books with the idea that some day, art would have a more prominent place in my life. 

Fortunately for me, that time has arrived.  With input from teachers and mentors and much hard work, I feel I have developed a valid artistic voice and style.  My  goal is to continue to present my work to the public via gallery and exhibit participation and to continue to grow and develop as an artist.
