![]() Statement
I have been drawing, painting and creating throughout my life.. After working as a licensed California architect, I returned to my passion of painting and drawing through classes at the Pacific Art League and various workshops in California New Mexico., and New Orleans. I love the enigmatic nature and beauty of watercolor, but am currently enjoying mixing mediums to create interesting textures. From my architecture training, Im drawn to urban scenes, but I'm also drawn to unique lighting and textures found in nature. Studies
