Carrabelle, FL
I graduated from Ringling School of Art in Sarasota, Florida in 1974. I lived and worked in the Bradenton and Sarasota areas for 23 years where I owned and operated Enterprise Studios, a wooden sign business. It turned out to be great experience and training ground for my work as a fine artist.
Living and working in my studio/home on Dog Island for 15 years placed me in a rural, isolated place with less than 20 permanent residents. I fell in love with the area and inspiration is everywhere. I look forward to and am thankful for being able to paint everyday.
Art for me is strictly my need to do it. I need to capture the time, place, feeling of being there, of knowing my subjects intimately. I work hard and try to make it work visually.
My current professional affiliations include:
-National Oil and Acrylic Painters’ Society, Signature Member
-Oil Painters of America
-American Society of Marine Artists
-American Impressionists Society, Inc.
