I have been creating art since I was a small child living in New York. I attended a high school where my creativity could flourish. After living in Los Angeles for many years, I came back to the East Coast to attend the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) and pursue my dream of art. I followed that with a Master of Arts from the University of Baltimore. I worked for many years in commercial side of art creating graphics and animation for the Intelligence Community. I am now enjoying my lifelong dream of creating fine art paintings full time. I work in oil, acrylic, and found materials. I paint in my studio regularly and sometimes paint Plein Air.
Because of my love for hiking, mountains, forests, and wildlife, I tend to create images that reflect my personal experiences. I enjoy the satisfaction that comes when my art resonates with the viewer’s experience as well.
