Primarily I was self taught throughout most of my childhood. Later, I began strengthening my interest in art by taking classes, attending workshops and eventually, attended the American academy of art. I became interested in creating portraits in high school and now have had a long career, of over 50 years, creating commissioned portraits in graphite, color pencil and oils. I also have an interest in painting water color landscapes, wild life and still life compositions. You can see examples of all these compositions on my gallery page.
I hope you enjoy perusing my gallery and perhaps order a print, that draws your interest or commission a portrait of a beloved family member, pet or even your home. Don't forget all pieces, including portraits can also be ordered as prints for other family members to enjoy. Thank you.
