I often refer to myself as an “emerging old artist”. 

​

I was introduced to the world of art and artists during my twenty years affiliation with the renowned Corcoran College of Art and Design in Washington, D.C. During my tenure as Dean of Students, I developed a new awareness and appreciation for all things art related.

​

More importantly, I fell in love with the art students and marveled at their talent and dedication to their craft. I had the great honor and privilege to observe “up close and personal’’ the agony and ecstasy of making art and becoming an artist.

​

Inspired by my students, I began “dabbling” in earnest by creating my own art. To my surprise, over the ensuing years I discovered a hidden talent and an all-consuming passion.

​

My artwork encompasses watercolor, acrylics, pen and ink drawings, collage, as well as mixed media paintings and illustrations. My style is unique… a bit quirky and whimsical. It reflects my personal view of ordinary things and everyday life… sometimes with humor, sometimes with sarcasm, and often with pathos and indulgent artistic license.  

​

It is my hope that you will enjoy my art as much as I enjoy creating and sharing it with you.
