I am a visual artist spanning five decades. Influenced by travel to Iceland, Hawaii and life experiences; Malama Island is my first written endeavor creating a story born out of fantastical images of reality, both experienced and imagined.
My pieces are influenced by my education in both art and zoology and have evolved from my early days of creating illustrations and assigned pieces promoting licensed movie models, posters for the home market and working as a professional artist for Sea World to creating pieces that represent me and my connection with the natural world.
I’ve lived in California, Illinois, Oregon and Arkansas.
