Art has been a part of my life since I was a young child. My mother being a fine artist got me interested early on. After earning my Associates Degree in Graphic Design from The Art Institute of Philadelphia, PA in 1985 I had a successful career as a graphic designer for 16 years. Later in life I pursued my passion in photography for many years while winning awards and exhibitions at many national shows. For the past 4 years I have evolved in painting acrylic abstracts that have won awards and sold pieces that have been in national shows too. I absolutely love abstract art and expressing myself on canvas.
