I was born with a pencil in my hand. Art was second nature to me before I began to study it formally. So I feel like I have been doing this all my life. I am now a 57 year old lion (leo) with a passion for my art and deep love of the use of technology to create with. Although I am new here. I am not new to the art world. I have much formal training behind me. I have a fine arts degree from California College of Arts and Crafts in the Bay Area. Oakland/San Francisco. My focus was Printmaking and Graphic Design and Photography. In some sense I was born with a silver pencil in my mouth as I found out I am a direct desendant of James McNeil Whistler as told to me by my Grandmother in Paris one morning after seeing his paintings in the Louve just across the river. Just to frame that I must tell you I would never have found that out accept for a great desire to know where I came from as I was adopted to parents that could have cared less if I ever knew who I was and where I came from. The story continues lol :)).....I wish to be working for every doing my art and sharing it
