Biography: A native of Michigan I studied Fine Art and Illustration at Kendall College of Art in Grand Rapids, MI and Computer Graphics and Photography at Spring Arbor College in Spring Arbor, MI. I received a degree in Communications Technology from Kellogg College, Battle Creek and worked in the graphic design and publications field. I have always been interested in art and photography and have worked in watercolor, gouache, acrylics and most recently in colored pencil.
While living in Green Valley, Arizona, I was a member of the Santa Rita Art League and exhibited in Green Valley and at the Red Poppy and Otero galleries in Tubac, Arizona. I learned colored pencil techniques during a series of courses at the Sonoran Desert Museum Art Institute in Tucson, Arizona. After relocating to Tennessee in 2018 I joined the Art Guild of Tellico Village and continue using colored pencil for botanical and still life art.
