I
have been
painting most of my life and have studied with John C.
Pellew, Claude Croney, Tony van Hasselt, Don Stone, and
Dan Gerhartz in both Oil and Watercolor.
I'm
mostly self-taught which gives me a very personal insight
to the subject as
well as my approach to capturing the image I see
and expressing it in paint. For me, art is a love affair,
a sheer joy
in all the aspects of painting.
I
have a bachelor degree from Loyola University of Chicago
and a masters degree from the University of Michigan.
