A Bit About Me...
When people ask me what I do for a living, I tell them that I am an
artist. The fun begins when they ask me, “What kind of an artist?”
“I am a creating-colors-light-shapes-with- pencils-paints-or-
computer-tools artist.” I reply. In other words, a very diverse visual artist.
I am fortunate to live in Northeast Ohio just outside of Chagrin Falls
in beautiful Geauga County. I love the woods, the water and wildlife.
Nature makes me come alive and brings peace to my soul. I believe that
artistic talent is a gift from God and that all of nature is painted by the
hand of God. So I pay very close attention to all that I look at, both
visually and spiritually.
Geometric structures and man-made objects intrigue me as well.
Originally my background was in advertising... graphic design and
illustration. I still enjoy that aspect of my career and am thrilled with the
opportunity to create something powerful in that domain.
But then, there is my passion for painting - or just sketching
something! All I know is that I am very happy when I am creating
something visually artistic and that is why I want to share my
enthusiasm with you!

with but I drew it on my computer.
