About the Artist
With drawing being my first love in art, I always enjoy painting in watercolor and have taught most media, including drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture in clay, paper and found objects, and digital media arts. My personal artwork consists of work painted or photographed directly from nature to capture the beauty of all things created. I studied art and photography earning a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts at Cheyney University and Teacher Certification at Moore College of Art and Design in Philadelphia and became an art educator. For many years I taught private art lessons on location and in private and public education in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Florida.
In 1998, I earned a Masters of Science degree in Instructional Media Technology at West Chester University in Pennsylvania and devoted my research to designing an Art & Computer Graphics Design curriculum which I further developed and taught at the New Smyrna Beach Middle School.
It was an award winning program with many students receiving recognition for their computer graphic design work. As a community connection project with the Redevelopment Authority, Atlantic Center for the Arts/Harris House and my Graphic Design classroom, my students used the computer to create sea life designs for lamppost panels. The students then actually painted the designs onto the panels with acrylic paint. Members of the Artist’s Workshop and Harris House volunteered to help guide the 35 7th grade students in completing the 72 painted panels. These panels hang on the lampposts on Atlantic Avenue between Flagler and 3rd Avenue in New Smyrna Beach, Flordia.
After many years of teaching in private and public education, I am now enjoying the fruits of my labor as I seek to enjoy the gifts I have been given and share with others of all ages who dream of being an artist. I am presently teaching a class called Young Artists Expressions Workshop at the Artists’ Workshop, I have an Art Ministry at Christ Community Church in New Smyrna Beach called “I AM” Impressions Art Ministry and I am Director of Art and teach children about Art at the Childrens Academy of Fine Art, CAFA in Port Orange, Fl.
I have exhibited in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Florida.
My work is in many collections in the United States and Europe.
