I was born in 1956 and live in Western New York, in Genesee County. I've loved making art for as long as I can remember, but for much of my adult life, I would draw, paint, or take photographs sporadically every few years while engaging in other work or activities. I finally decided to go back to school and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the State University of New York College at Brockport in 1999, where I studied painting and ceramic sculpture. For several years since then, I've made numerous concrete sculptures for our gardens and have done some painting on and off. In 2015, I realized that making art is what I love and what I want to do for the rest of my life, especially acrylic painting. I'm fortunate to have more free time now to pursue my passion for creativity.
