"I have been painting, drawing, and creating 3D art for as long as I can remember.  The mediums used range from oil, watercolor, acrylic, oil pastels, and pastels.  I love to learn new art techniques and experiment with different types of materials.Movement, ballet and dance, people, birds, dogs, cats, horses, lamas, beautiful beaches, mountains, landscapes,  and bridge architecture inspire me."
