BIO
I am most intrigued about being gifted with the ability to express myself through the medium of painting. I feel that the subjects that I paint are those I am destined to paint.
I enjoy using color, and it often is the inspiration from which I draw in creating a painting.
I began to pursue art classes in Junior High and High School, beginning with basic drawing classes using india ink. I earned a scholarship to the University of The Pacific in Stockton, California. There I studied the basics of color, composition, art history, printmaking and sculpture. After college, I pursued a professional career as a CAD Drafter and Technical Illustrator with Lockheed Missiles and Space Company. I have been employed with various internet companies and continue to create greeting cards, some of which are available on the Blue Mountain website.
My influences are drawn from the French impressionists. I consider my work contemporary fine art. I create works in oil, watercolor, acrylic and some colored pencil and charcoal. My subjects are people, places and things!
I reside in San Francisco where I teach art in public and private school art programs. I also work in my own studio in San Francisco.
