About the ArtistI’m a local artist and have spent the last several years in the Santa Clarita Valley, about 35 miles north of Los Angeles. I had some formal art training in high school and at the local community college. Otherwise, I am self-taught. Most of my work consists of color and black and white pencil drawings. I have also worked with acrylics.
The subject of my art work has generally been Science Fiction and Fantasy, but I have recently enjoyed painting portraits and wildlife. I am also exploring digital art as well. |
Fundraising
In addition, I have participated in art shows to raise money for cancer awareness programs as well as programs that support wildlife preserves (such as actress Tipi Hedren’s* “Shambala” Wildlife Preserve and Roar Foundation (www.shambala.org). The money raised from the sales of my paintings was used for the operational costs of the wild life preserve.
