Principal Artist & Creative Conjurer

• My foundation in the multimedia art you will find through this site began with many years of elementary and high school art classes and photography in the Midwest.  I attended vocational technical classed in Computer Science, and Lapidary classes for stone cutting and jewelry setting.
• After the benefit of early graduation from high school, I left home for California.  Once there, I continued the trend in art by attending classes at The Academy of Art and City College of San Francisco, where I also studied Medical Administration and Business.
• Many semesters of fine art and metal smith classes later, I settled into working with sculptural plastics and found objects.  My early work looked like edibles or organic material.  I then moved on to working with fabricated metals and semi-precious stones as my trademark style discovered me.
