Expressionist Artist

Art was my world during high school and when I began college.  I was President of the Art Club then started at KU, pursuing a Visual Arts Education and Art History degree.

I'll always remember my drawing professor's impactful assessment that I had the ethereal and seemingly unattainable "it."  And I was honored to receive the Amsden Award via the Kress Foundation Department of Art History.

But life happened.  As it does.  A series of decisions that somehow seemed right at the time . . . Then I lost my divorginity.  It was the catalyst for awakening from my nearly 20-year creative coma.  I'm invigorated to make up for lost time; open to possibilities.
