I have been painting in both watercolor and oils for the past 12 years. I started taking private lessons while living in Dallas, Texas. My travels throughout the world have given me both the inspirations and subjects for many of my paintings. I grew up in the Tidewater, Virginia area on the water and enjoy all watersports as well as riding. I received my BS Degree from Virginia Commonwealth University and hold teaching certificates in Virginia, Texas and a Texas Real Estate License. I look forward to being a member of MFA and enjoying residing here in the historic area of Murray Hill Annapolis.
