THE GALLERY represents my years as a fine artist before and after CLASSICAL DECORATIVE ARTS. During CLASSICAL’s active years the work was commercial in representation. The following examples of Fine Art renderings and SKETCHBOOK entries are done without client approval or input.

iPAD PRO Exercise ~ New Purse ~ PROCREATE App

3 Minute QUICK SKETCHES ~Pen with Brown Ink (left)

Sketchbook Drawings ~ Markers ~ Pen/Ink ~Art Institute of Chicago

Being a member of INTERNATIONAL SALON since 2000 has given me the opportunity to both demonstrate and exhibit not only throughout the States but travel to England, Brugg, Paris, and London. I am honored to be part of this invitation only art community while traveling the world.

During the INTERNATIONAL SALON event it is quite humbling to exhibit with these exceptional DECORATIVE ARTISTS from around the world.
