I am an artist who lives, works and teaches in the Phoenix area of AZ. I have earned two Master of Fine Arts degrees, one at San Diego State University and one at Otis Institute of the Arts in L.A., CA. I was lucky to study Renaissance painting in Florence, Italy.
In graduate school I had a part-time job working on a sports scuba diving boat where I explored many of the beautiful coves along the pacific coast of Baja Mexico. I later lived in a pine forest in the San Gabriel Mountains of southern California where my husband and I raised our two sons. We had bears, foxes, and plenty of deer for our neighbors. It is all of these experiences that inform my drawings and paintings. I work in oil paints as well as charcoal and simple graphite pencils. I teach at a college where I hope my students learn as much from me as I do from them.
