I am a self taught artist and I have painted and drawn since I was a kid - no formal credentials per say (ALTHOUGH) I did win best rabbit made out of a milk carton in 2nd grade (this is TRUE) and the Christmas coloring contest in 3rd (so is THIS).
Didn't we all peak in grammar school anyway?
My body of work is about 100 (I couldn't say exactly) canvases/drawings/ditigal prints - I have on site after sales and placements about 50 that ebb and flow - what I consider my active work. I also used to sell onsies on a vending table on the street in NYC - which was fun. I'm a J...

My body of work is about 100 (I couldn't say exactly) canvases/drawings/ditigal prints - I have on site after sales and placements about 50 that ebb and flow - what I consider my active work. I also used to sell onsies on a vending table on the street in NYC - which was fun. I'm a Jersey girl now (ack!) and I continue (here) to sell reproductions of my paintings.
I have sold artwork and reproductions all over the US as well as in a couple of foreign countries - I like to keep a schedule of one high quality piece a month (12 a year) which doesn't always happen these days as I am in school for Graphic Design!
Both me and MY ART are SLOWLY (AND PAINSTAKINGLY) CHANGING...but there you have it...
What else?
I study Graphic Design at Parsons The New School for Design.
Influences: Warhol. Van Gogh. Miro. Pollack. Kandinsky. Dr. Seuss.
Enjoy my work - it will make your house pretty.
From my Home to Yours.
