National November Drawing Month

I've started posting sketches to the Flickr site: NaNoDrawMo. (National November Draw More)--will tell you more later. I think my scanner 'squashed' the Diet Coke can image a bit...but I have no idea how to correct that. I was proud of achieving the correct proportions in the original. Oh well. We artists must practice having Teflon egos.

About Me

My studio is located in Puyallup WA., a small city of about 37,000 people located S.E. of Tacoma WA and South of Seattle.

I began art with training in Commercial Art, followed by occasional university fine arts classes in Michigan, Texas, and Washington state, along with many workshops with professional artists.

I have experienced selling my art in galleries, participating in juried shows (and winning some nice prizes), completing commissions, and selling drawings, prints, and paintings in various venues. I have taught art classes, held a Figure Studio program for five years in my studio, and hosted workshops for nationally known artists.

My art focus currently is on Urban Sketching. In 2013 I founded Urban Sketchers-Tacoma, which serves Pierce County, WA. I will be retiring from co-administering this program shortly after USk-Tacoma's fifth birthday, on May 6, 2017, happy there are excellent leaders in place to continue USk programming, serving artists in our area of the world.
