Pauline, SC
I completed a Bachelors degree at Louisiana Tech with post-graduate study at LSU-New Orleans in Urban Demographics. I studied art in California, Louisiana and Rome, Italy. Professionally, my career was in newspaper publishing as Director of Print Quality for Gannett Company. My publishing background included the use of graphics software like Photoshop, which I use during the planning stages of my work for the purpose of distorting the subject matter. I live in the rural area of Pauline,SC where I have the privilege to paint and draw with a view of the Tyger River running at the edge of my property. We have left much of our 12 acres “wild” to encourage the natural growth of native species and to attract a wide variety of wildlife. Preservation of our environment is very important to me so I'm focusing much of my current work on flora and water included with a figure. This is my way of emphasizing our connection to our environment which is linked to our survival as a species.
