I am an award winning artist whose artistic journey began in the late 70s when I picked up my first SLR camera and realized I had a really good eye for composition and interesting subjects.  From photography I turned to stained glass, which fed my love of color in a big way!  My former career as an independent change management consultant often overtook the time I had for art.  Today I spend my creative time with acrylic, mixed media collage, and watercolor.  The thread through all of my creative work is my love of color, good composition and the sense of stillness and peace I feel when I leave my studio.

I am also a published poet.  Fearless Frontier, my first collections of 59 poems, can be found on Amazon.

When I'm not in my studio, I'm writing poetry and in the summer gardening.
