Hi. I began drawing and painting in 2004 after moving to Worcester, Massachusetts. I set up this website to share some of my art work. Originally from Michigan, I have also lived in Arizona, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, and the last 22 years in Massachusettts. I earned degrees in English and education at Michigan State, Arizona State, and the University of Wisconsin. After teaching English and reading at Detroit and Phoenix high schools, I taught at the university and community college levels.
I love doing portraits. The faces of people fascinate me. I started most of the paintings in this group at Princeton Arts Society on Tuesday mornings and finished them up at home from photographs.
At Princeton Art Society, I make a pastel portrait every Tuesday morning.
The best thing about still life arrangements is that they are still.

These oil portraits are of neighbors at Pointe Rok, the condominium community where I live.
These paintings were completed between 2020 and 2024.
