"Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."

About The Artist

Picture
My professional career has taken me in many directions. First as a graphic designer for a small publishing company, a freelance artist, an elementary school teacher and an elementary school principal.  In my retirement I have renewed my passion for many things, including travel, swimming, music, yoga and art.
