My story:

I went to Buffalo State College for my art teaching degree, and then Marywood University in Scranton, PA for my Masters degree in Fine Arts, in painting. I then taught art at Syracuse City School District for 23 years before devoting myself to painting. I teach classes at the Art Store in Syracuse every now and then.

I have primarily used oil paint for most of my life, but branched into acrylic markers after teaching. I still love oil paint, and use it for my larger works.

I currently sell my art at various art fairs around central NY, and am working on a book of my paintings.
