Expressing myself through various forms of art is my passion. I am intrigued by many forms of art. My love of nature serves as inspiration. My goal is to create a sense of happiness and joy to the observer, to allow them to pause and realize there is infinite possibility within each of us. I am a native of Colorado having grown up in Colorado Springs and now residing in Canon City, CO. I enjoy playing the piano, listening to all genres of music, being outdoors, and spending time with my family.
I have produced bronzes, stone carvings, wood carvings and wood masks, decorative gourds, paintings, and glass on glass mosaics. I’ve been fortunate to have received several commissions for these pieces and have displayed and sold several limited editions through various art galleries.
Although I am mostly a self-taught artist, I have studied privately with world-renowned sculptor Michael Garman, and have taken portrait drawing classes at the Cottonwood Center for the Arts. In the past I attended a workshop at the Denver Botanic Gardens with Chapungu stone carvers, Arthur Fata and Brian Nyanhongo, from Zimbabwe.
