Interests and Personality
| Biography | Like most artists I would have drawn in the womb if I'd had paper and pencils. I can't remember when I wasn't drawing cartoons and making comic books and taking them to school to pass around to my friends. My father was a very talented artist so I inherited some of my skill from him. I graduated from Western Carolina University in Cullowhee,NC where I got a BFA in printmaking. I adore the rich graphic quality of prints even though I love pen & ink, acrylics, watercolors, and my "Compullages™." Some people will tell you that they love to do art...I have to do ART it is part of my soul. For 20 years I was Advertising and Visual Merchandising Manager for Belk stores in NC and GA. I won many awards for my work while there. Due to medical disability I now have the opportunity to chase my dream of doing fine art fulltime. Each day is a challenge, each artwork an achievement! |
| Interests | The beauty of God's creation. Great art from great artists. Acrylic paintings, relief prints, pen & ink drawings, photography, assemblage sculpture, marker drawings watercolors, and anything I can do in an artistic way. |
| Music | Classical music, folk rock, the Beatles, BeeGees, Sting, Paul Simon, Ennio Morricone, Yo-Yo Ma, Ladysmith Black Mambasso, Danny Elfman, and many movie soundtracks. Some country music but not all. |
| Films | Tombstone, Casino Royale ( and most all Bond films), Clint Eastwood Spaghetti westerns, John Wayne westerns,and The Incredibles. Batman Beyond, X-Men flicks and Spiderman flicks! |
| Television | Prisonbreak, 24, Supernatural,House. PBS art and culture programs. |
| Books | Eye sight isn't good enough to read much without distress. |
| Heroes | Jesus Christ, grandparents, father, mother, sister, wife, and my 4 children. Any common person who helps others in an uncommon way! |
