I am basically a self taught artist, but have taken so many great workshops and classes the past few years, that I really can't take all the credit!

I have always had a passion for art and have finally been able to devote my full attention to painting the past five years.  I have taken workshops from Randy Sexton, Anne Blair Brown, Ken Auster, Kenn Backhaus, Gabor Svagrik, Phil Starke.  I have also enjoyed drawing and color composition classes, and figure drawing. I have had the opportunity to paint with Susan Tolliver's studio class, and Claudia Hammer's.  So much amazing talent out there and still so much to learn!!  

I now rent my own space at Mellwood Art Studio in Louisville so have a dedicated work space and lots of other artists around.
