Artist Statement studied fine arts, dancing at winston salem school of arts. have been drawing and or writing since age 5. ballet and mixed media art were focus. when i was 14 graduated. went on dance tour over the world, always drawing they people i met or could speak in their language. eyes were and are the focus when i draw. if they dont follow me around my room, well not finished. mostly do digital abstracts as very few can afford my commission. i painted in miami to new york city, as well as dancing.
i choreographed when i stopped the dancing, then took on commissions, did wall murals which is why stopped dancing met man of my dreams, had two of most beautiful daughters of which i photoed endlessly. husband a builder many a home in archetectural digest. he passed sadly.
i danced and on down time 3 months usually i took dancing classes from one of toughest of task masters in NYC.
i also took acting classes from a place, which i never knew at time produced some of greatest of actors. why i did not think of for always classes in home.
i have shown and sold prints in NYC on Mulberry Feast. sold in Miami for friend who was artist and window designer, actress, model showed my art. i received many a commission for babes to debutantes.
i garnered many awards as child from art, science fair, won spelling bee, wrote many a poem and short stories and one book. i have just finished my 5th dvd, cd for children or adults with infirmities. yes pro bono for dear friend. he told me that many adults are now lookin at. all about visualization, yoga, using that childlike mind to blow a rock up and put it back in to its form. that is if good rock. the key is keeping in suspension with eyes closed focusing, and children seem to do better, and surprise they love how yoga releases pain with breath and colors. they choose their color, yes love blowing up those blocks, amusing to i.
what discourages i, people who still view an infirmed person with fear if right word. must always tell anyone going to help espescially children for they know before one walks through that door. yes we have made great leaps yet not high enough i feel. i see adults who know not what or where whose children and friends abandon them, they take this very hard as do children with friends. parents help so much.
my father changed my world of thinking he passed when i was 12, my grandmother had altzheimers, though then we knew not what to call it. he gave me sense of responsibilty to visit and read often to her at home they eventually had to put her in. delicate reason. killed my grandfather almost. yes as child one can smell death. should say some can. it was scary yet loved her so much. my aunt or i would visit each week. hard. different times. she never responded that i saw in ten years. yes sad, yes all need to be aware. that same aunt befell to early onset altzheimers. my age now. think other saved me i pray. i love her so very much and she lives far away. i know dads family her children are with her constantly.
yes a world of hardships. yet the world has always been this way. just news gets it out.
i wear a watch a favorite tv show of fathers and i on sundays. disney. "I believe in Tink"
thanks for your time and hope enjoy the myriad of art and form here at imagekind. jaci
i rode arabians as dressage as this is ballet personafied for me. have not rode for five years as i to was derailed. on the mend. can do yoga, ballet, hike i so love the spirit which exist in all of colorado and more. ancient and always something new one sees.

much of what i have done as adult with showing art or photography was for charitible events.
i was one class away from having my art history degree. yes derailed. i do better by helping now in art for a world who seeks same yet different. if had gone back to college for i was gone to long. would have had to take 10plus classes. so that is why.
