About ME
I majored in Fine Art at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, The University of West Florida, Pensacola, Florida and Otis Art Institute of Parson’s School of Design, Los Angeles, CA, from which I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1992. While pursuing my education, I had the privilege to study under many influential artists, such as, Deborah Butterfield, Will Weston, and David Willardson. Subsequently, I have produced a number of commissioned large-scale portraits, landscapes, murals, and other paintings.
In addition, I have participated in a number of fine arts gallery shows throughout the country and have won a number of awards for my work including: Bobbi Mastrangelo Award- HERstory at Cornell Art Museum , Delray Beach, FL; Boca Raton Museum of Art Artists Guild Award; an international award for the most intriguing imagery from the Agora Gallery in New York City for my paintings pertaining to the homeless; the most effective use of mixed medium from the Cypress Gallery in Los Angeles California; and the best imagery from the Off Broadway Gallery, Indianapolis, IN. In addition, I was nominated to participate in an exhibit, Whispers to Shouts: Indiana Women Who Create, which took place at the Indiana State Museum.
Lastly, I truly enjoy instructing students and have been an educator for many years.
