My pastel paintings have been widely collected in the United States and Europe for more than a decade. I have been awarded numerous recognitions in both juried and invitational shows, and my work has been acquired by corporations such as Merrill Lynch. I had the honor of attending my first artist reception in Atlanta this year as two of my paintings were hung in the Oglethorpe University Museum.
I am represented in Houston by the Lampross Gallery, and in Key Largo Florida by Reef Gallery.
In 1995 I undertook an advanced education in the fine arts at The Glassell School of art in Houston. In recent years I have traveled extensively to study with Master artists such as Richard McKinley, Albert Handell and Elizabeth Mowry.
