I'm a recent transplant to the Pacific Northwest from the east.
Apparently if you live here, you must have a dog. It's the law. I
thought it would be sensible to move from human portraits to animal
portraits, and it has proven to be a happy decision. I have met and
painted hundreds of dogs, cats and other creatures, and enjoyed every
minute of it.

My training is in Musical Theatre. I earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts
from the Boston Conservatory of Music. My theatre work contributes to
my art work. I like a subject to be presented in a dramatic way, but
always with a little bit of humor. Art is a serious investment but
that doesn't mean it shouldn't make you smile.
