My mother was an artist. I remember coming in from school and seeing her totally immersed in painting huge wall murals for local businesses. She was having so much fun that I knew that's what I wanted to do. And I've been hooked on painting ever since!

I have worked on a variety of projects in my life. But the most rewarding was a grass roots non-profit organization for endangered animals. We had projects here and in Africa. We focused on the young orphaned animals that are always left behind. I created two wildlife posters that are used in public service announcements. National Geographic Magazine ran our public service announcements from 1989 through 1992. They loved what we were trying to do and gave such wonderful support.
