Biography
I started drawing in high school using graphite. I took classes in school as well as adult education classes in the evening. Coached mostly by my mother, also an artist, I switched to colored pencil and pastels in 2003. I currently prefer to use pastels. I am a member and current treasurer of the Westerville Art league. I served as the Westerville Art League President in winter of 2007-2008. I also served as the Secretary for the Ohio Artists Pastel League (OPAL). Finally, I am a member of the Arts Council of Westerville .
I have had my artwork at Gallery 202 in Westerville Ohio, and Serindip Gallery in Powell Ohio. I have been in Many Westerville Art league shows, a few in Worthington, Ohio State University, and the Ohio State Fair. I have displayed my art in several places around Columbus and Delaware for small shows. I have participated in numerous Art festivals in Westerville and Worthington Ohio.
