Introduction I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. I went to college when I was 37 years old. I loved it so much, I was a sponge and absorbed anything and everything about art. I started out wanting to be a portrait artist but ended up using pencil and colored pencils. I made quite a name for myself with my drawings. I won many awards. When I needed a break from that I went into oil sticks and just loved them and again did very well with awards. I finally went back to my oils but always felt frustrated with them I wanted to be free from all constraints, I am now working in acrylics and loving them. So now the sky is the limit. I just want to go and do everything I feel and want to express.
Interests Everything about art, oil painting, acrylics, colored pencils, oil pastels, soft pastels, drawing, collage.
Favorite Movies Billy Elliot is one of my favorite movies and so is The Blues Brothers.
Favorite Music I love opera, one of my favorites is Ill Travatore by Verdi
Favorite Books I love to read and read all the time
