Proud recipient of the 2009/2010 Port Royal,SC "Artist of the Year"  Mayors Choice  & Arts Council of Beaufort County Award

Hi, my Mom said I was born with a pencil in my hand ;) My professional career began when i turned 30, now as an award winning, national collected artist I consider myself a realistic Illustrative - painter. Pen & ink cross-hatch & watercolors  are my favorite mediums.  Ink-Blending is my stylized art form of layering delicate brush strokes of watercolor upon layers of  intricate pen & ink. Surrealism  combines my love of the pen with imagination and universal messages about Mother Earth.  For 20 years attending art shows now I am happy to offer my art life online for the ease of viewing and collecting. Within the last few years I have evolved my painting  skills into the Acrylic Mural area, where I have worked with several school grade levels ranging from 3rd through 9th to teach the process of and complete a wall mural. My goals in the class rooms are to help teach the basics and advance education of art & ideas focused within the curriculum standards as a target. I am a veteran 20 yr Art Educator; pioneered the "Art for Kids"  after school art program  for 12yrs at our local YMCA , an Artist Mentor with The Kennedy Center for the Arts workshops & programs 2003-2005 and Arts Intergration in Beaufort County Schools 2004-present.
My subject matter choices relate to my love of historical southern architecture, birds,nature and a surrealistic earth.   
Many of my new works represent my life as I live and love from my kayak on the Port Royal Sound Intracoastal waterway, upstate SC lakes & streams.
