Here is another of the flower card series. Zinnias, like Cosmos are easy growers that perk up a garden with their intense colors. I used to think they were gaudy but now I can't seem to do without them. They are LOUD garden participants...but..you gotta love 'em!

What a joy to see your work here for all the world to enjoy!!! You will brighten many lives by doing this! I am very proud of you!
Thanks Debbie! Yes...paintings are to come but this is just as much a passion for me. I'll never be able to commit myself to just one medium, (good thing I'm not like that in other aspects of my life, ha!)
I grew up in culturally diverse San Francisco Bay Area and indulged in all forms of creative venues varying from music and dance to rich visual treats at museums.
I earned a BFA in Graphic Design at CCA and relished in the fine arts and design courses offered there. I graduated just before the dawn of computer graphics applications and have always felt blessed to be one of the last students taught the disciplines of exacting, hands-on skills required of the pre-computerized field. We were trained to apply strict adherence to detail and almost Zen-like focus on precise execution. This disciplined arts oriented ideology has influenced my approach not only to what I do in the studio but to life in general.
Of course, I have learned computer graphics applications since. I would be deceiving myself if I didn’t embrace one of the most amazing and flexible tools available to the modern day artist/designer. I only hope my work reflects that of carefully thought out artistry and evokes sentiments of beauty and balance as good design is meant to do. Hopefully my passion for thought provoking art coupled with love of the outdoors brings you visual contentment and joy.
