I've been drawing and painting as long as I can remember and growing up, I couldn’t imagine doing anything other than art for a career. Since painting probably wasn’t going to pay the bills, I focused my college studies on graphic design and illustration. Fresh out of college I got a job designing ads for the yellow pages – very non-glamorous, but a start! From there the road led to a fun graphics and illustration job at a bicycle clothing company, then on to creating educational software for kids and graphics for computer-based training and medical equipment. Peppered in were several wonderful opportunities to illustrate books. Serendipity led me into the online gaming world where I created user interface design and at least a million and a half tiny icons for massively multiplayer online games. With my recent retirement from the "real" working world I'm back to drawing and painting every day and couldn’t be happier to be reunited with my first, true loves! Finding Art on 30th has kindled the fire by connecting me with a community of artists who challenge and encourage me daily. I’m very excited to be teaching in such a creative and uplifting environment. My passion is to make creating art accessible to everyone by sharing knowledge and ideas, and to encourage the creative spirit that I believe lives in all of us. Instructor Website |

There are so many wonderful avenues to take in art...and I love the exploration. That's what keeps me excited about this lovely journey...it's ever changing, aways adventurous and completely delightful. In my early life I had long careers in display and visual presentation, along with another as a faux finish and mural artist in many homes for private clients as well as Interior Designers. My mural work eventually led me into painting on canvas and my merchandising eye for putting things together stirred my interests towards mixed media and assemblage art. I wake up most mornings ready to create. I greet my studio with something in mind and start the days adventure from there. Instructor Website |
