About
I did a lot of doodling and drawing when I was a kid and in school was frequently asked to complete art class assignments for kids who didn’t really like art. Clouds were my specialty. I started painting at a young age in my basement (when oil paints were pretty cheap) and my realistic style of painting gave way to abstract many years later. It was a transition from painting what I saw in reality to painting what I saw in my mind. Later, I moved to New York and started doing pen and ink sketches of the fascinating daily life, and illustrated a children’s book (never published). I was part of a group show in a lower Manhattan gallery. In L.A. where I presently live, I’ve been in several group shows at a local gallery and I continue to do sketches of daily life. Tho it is a little quieter here, this past year I’ve sketched locals at the coffee shop in the mornings.
