Art
is my life; my passion. Even in Europe, where I was born, Art was an important
part of my life. In fact, as far back as I can remember, I loved creating and I
am also blessed with an imagination that knows no bounds. Over the years I
tried almost all types of mediums and became proficient in most of them;
winning some awards along the way. I have shown my work in solo and group shows
both in Colorado and California. My art education began in public school and in
1970, I graduated from the Colorado Institute of Art. In the following years I
enhanced my abilities by attending workshops by such artists as Elaine Harvey,
Linda Doll, Barbara Nechis, Pat Deadman and Doug Walton; just to name a few.
Miscellaneous
art related work experience includes eighteen years as an illustrator for
National and International Rubber Stamp companies; four years as an Art
Director and eleven years as a graphic artist. I also spent several years
creating costume jewelry and craft items, of all sorts, which I sold at craft
shows. Some are currently still available on my website.
Recently,
I renewed my love of painting. My subjects are not limited to anything in
particular. I love painting subjects of all types; in watercolors and
occasionally in acrylics.
