| Introduction | "There's nothing better than discovering, to your own astonishment, what you're meant to do. It's like falling in love." - Mike Nichols – I am now 5 years into my classically-oriented art education. I have three years at the Academy of Art in San Francisco - having studied there with Ruben Deanda, Henry Yan, Zhaoming Wu and Tomutsu Takeshima and Tae Park among such great teachers. I have studied the GCA in NYC and with Rob Liberace, Michael Grimaldi, Hope Railey as well as master Glen Orbik down at CAI.. I spent a rewarding year with Anthony Ryder in NM - 2009-10. The fall of 2010 took me to the Guild Atelier in beautiful and wacky Brooklyn - studying w/ Camie Davis. I work hard and want to be as great a painter and draftsman as I can be. Drawing and painting people is probably my favorite thing to do.. I grew up in Washington, DC and spent 15 working in Seattle for Microsoft I am now an Instructor at the Academy of Art. The energy is great and I hope my students see how much their success matters to me. They probably have no idea ( unless they hunt this down and read it!). |
