|
Wheaton,Illinois USA. I am a painter, sculptor, poet, teacher and editor. All forms of art and the world around me I find fascinating. |
| About the Artist | |
I have been writing poetry for years, but the sculpture began for me in late 70's, painting in early 90's. My interests are many--both aesthetic and cultural. Discovery is my inspiration and love of my materials is my actual starting point. |
