I have always been an artist, painting in acrylic, watercolor, pastel, and now oil with cold wax medium. I have had a long and successful career in sculpting in stone with my pieces on show around the country. My focus is now on Abstract Art and Photography. I am essentially a self-taught artist taking workshops on occasion. I love both the painting and photography mediums and I often combine my photography with my paintings as inspiration or incorporate them together in collage. I strive for movement, energy, color harmony, composition, light, and contrast. I strive for movement, energy, color harmony, composition, light, and contrast.
