Career


Artist Statement


Drawing/Painting is not something I do because I am a trained artist nor is it something I teach because I am an art teacher. Drawing and Painting move me. They transport me. There is no past or future....only now. Only the moment I am presently in. The canvas or paper is the land of infinite possibilities. It is where I deposit my dreams.
