| About the Artist |
I studied art for two years, earning a AFA in Fine Arts. Since then I've studied under various teachers and have learned much from New York City musuems, galleries and the art scene there.
My art changes and evolves as I move through life. Mystical studies, The Tarot, Astrology and religion inspire me. I love B movies and dark fiction. I am passionate about politics and women's issues. My paintings evolve from those aspects. In addition, my moods and experiences play a role in my work. My primary tool is acrylic paint. However, I use oils, watercolor, ink, pastels and pencil as well. I also use found objects at times. I've experimented with many styles and mediums through the years. I will continue to do so in the future. |

| Education and biography |
My figurative work has been exhibited in colleges, book stores and various alternate venues. It has been published in magazines and within books. I've sold my work in hair salons, on the internet, at fairs and through word of mouth. My online experience has made it possible for people all over the world to purchase my work.
I recently underwent a life altering experence. I battled cancer through most of 2007 and continue the fight to remain cancer free. To say the least the experience has impacted my work.I will be adding my new pieces here gradually.
I am also an accomplished writer. My fiction--like my visual work-- is sometimes dark and speckled with supernatural elements. My novel MANHATTAN GRIMOIRE will be released from DELIRIUM books In October 2008. My novel SETTLING IN NAZARETH was published in 2001 and DESCENT in 2005. In addtion, my novel FROM ASHES is completed and good news regarding its publication is forthcoming.
