My first real introduction to art was art class in middle school.  The teacher thought she saw some potential in me, and next thing I know the parents are enrolling me into an atelier in Edmonds, WA (The Studio @ Firdale Arts Center).  I spent the next five years there learning, painting & enjoying.  Also took every art class offered at the high school.  I did the art college thing at the old Burnley School of Commercial Arts.  Later I decided I hated commercial art, so I took all the art classes at EDCC so I could have a venue to produce art.  I ended up learning how to restore old plaster and have spent many years at that, all the while yearning to spend more time creating art .  I finally got to a point where I needed to have art as a major part of my life.  Some years back I found and joined up with a very small group of artists who had just started a figure drawing group in a barn north of Snohomish, WA.

Several years later and now in the group's third incarnation we are still drawing the figure.  We've now had our own studios and gallery at Lowell Art Works since 2007.
