"Art has always been an important part
of my life. Each of the many forms of expression offers just another
unique way to express inner feelings and reactions to my life's
experiences. "
Here you can view several selections of Art
Media I have chosen to express myself. Each one offered
a challenge & the use of a learned skill, a sensitive eye
for design, composition and color that pleased me. My art
and photography work is part of many collections and has
been accepted in many shows & exhibitions over the years.
I have shown my Artwork three times at Lincoln Center's
Cork Gallery in NYC.
... My Background
Studies & workshops with several prominent
artists have provided an opportunity to develop skills in
various media. Gail Op was responsible for a deep interest
in oriental painting and Sumie, Claude Ponsot & Robert Carter
have helped me hone skills in charcoal rendering and drawing,
Edgar Whitney, Eloise Gardiner and Robert E. Wood taught
me techniques of watercolor, Jeff Webb and Jo Hing Lo inspired
an interest in pastel portraiture. Calligraphy became an
obsession after joining a local group of scribes and attending
several workshops. I became obsessed with the many facets
of it. An interest in photography lead me to take a course
in photographing Artwork. A service resulted photographing
artists work. I also used my camera to record photos that
inspired paintings or helped in the process. Recently, digital
photography has opened new horizons for me. This new field,
with the help of computer software, virtually gives one
all the tools necessary to manipulate and be creative with
photos.
I'm a fine artist, calligrapher, graphic designer:
Photography is a favorite media. I rely on
photos for inspiration and for recording my, and other artists,
work. You are welcome to view my other albums containing
fine art work and graphics.
