I was born December 17, in the Bronx, three hundred and sixty five years ago. I have 3 biological children & one adopted…all grown and paying their own bills. I have 9 grandchildren.

I have tried most mediums of ‘art’ and have not decided what my preferences are.

I do know that anything, medical or nature is my love.

I’ve been in and around the ‘art’ world for about 35 years.

Throughout those years, I’ve worked in many different fields

I’ve had one job to satisfy my landlord and the other to quench my ‘artistic’ needs.

As many have told me, my creative mind, never sleeps…whether I’m designing a drop ceiling, a room, an egg, or a photograph. I incorporate all into a ball within my mind and sift out the parts that, not necessarily make $, but make me feel whole.

Growing up, I wanted to be a neurosurgeon, but the physics was way out of my league, so I took Industrial Arts instead. When I graduated in1975, women were not working in construction; I took an office job that I hated. I looked for a part time job in the art field. My first job was for Friedman & sons, doing paste-up & mechanicals. Film cutting for step & repeat patterns; designing posters & doing the major work for famous artists, like Peter Max. Life went on; I sought out other art jobs and eventually quit working in an office for several years when I got a position as an art director for a Screen Mfg Corp, a silk screening co. They accepted & printed 81 out of 85 designs. Later on in years, I became a English teachers aid to foreign born students. Later on, I became a crisis intervention worker. I learned goldsmith & jewelry repair, got bored after many years and started doing stained glass lamps, etc. & eggery, In between all of this, I painted & built a website. Then I started taking pictures & found that I really enjoyed it and was fairly good at it. When I went to my first PFAA meeting, they laughed at my 4mp camera, but I received 77 points for my photo. Boy did my head swell…I was off and running…and here I am! Phew!
