I was born and raised in San Francisco and took for granted the great art programs in my public school and the ability to access local museums for free. As a child, I took classes at the SF De Young Museum and could wander the galleries with sketchbook in hand.

Although I started painting in oil, and still offer pet portraits in that medium, I also work inĀ  watercolor, colored pencil, pen/ink and collage. Most recently, I’ve tried pastels and came to love their texture and softness, especially when used for painting outdoors. Now I realize that art is a lifetime of learning and each piece can reveal new options.
