- About Me
- Hi. I am an artist that would like to make a living creating art. Until now I functioned as an instructor of art. First, K-8 students then college and adult ed. students. I taught students in Drawing, 3-D and 2-D design, Sculpture, Ceramics, Painting, Watercolor, Art Appreciation, and Art for Elementary Ed. teachers. The studio postition at my college was terminated last spring due to budget cuts, so now I wouldlike to concentrate on my art. I hope to cartoon and broden my work in other media too.
