I believe you don't know what you can do until you try - and then keep trying something else. So it's not surprising I'm a self taught artist... and I continue to learn and grow. It's a fascinating experience.

I'm a full-time artist - I have been for over 8 years now. It's an interesting way to make a living - you never know what's going to happen next. My acrylics are vibrant and have strong colors. I do house portraits in watercolor and they're soft and voluptuous - when you see them together, it looks like two different artists. Go figure!

I was born and raised in Africa, then lived around Europe for many years (Germany, Greece, Turkey, England, Spain and France) including 5 years on a sailboat before I moved to the U.S. ....  interesting times exploring Central America and Canada before working as a reporter, drove 18-wheelers for a couple of wild years, and then I became a full time artist and lived in New Orleans until Hurricane Katrina. It was the city of my soul. But now, I have my own gallery in Union Point, Georgia called The Point of Art Gallery & Studio.

                              You can all me at (706) 486-6808.

My life just proves you never know what will happen next. What a grand adventure!
