MY STORY
A Love for Creativity
I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. When I was very young, I would paint rocks and sell them for a quarter to my neighbors. My friend to this day jokes how I painted beautiful landscapes, while she painted stick figures. The rock featured here was painted by me when I was a kid, and saved by a childhood friend. What a laugh!
My dad was a designer engineer, and he fostered my love for art. He worked in NYC, and would bring me home art supplies. My love grew. I was a fine art major in college, but ended up in NYC working in advertising as a graphic designer. I later became a Sr. Creative Director and worked for many years in this capacity. But when you manage, you become hands off, and I missed designing. Being a fine artist as well, I decided it was time to leave the 9 - whatever job, and do what I truly loved. I now paint full time and design. I smile a lot more.
