My work in different mediums such as textile arts, eclectic furniture and house painting, jewelry making, cake design, edible sculptings, modeling, and body building...has now dropped me on the doorstep of an infatuation with face & body painting, and photographic art ....my newest avenues of expression. 
Born and survived Staten Island, NY for 19 yrs; left the city for CA for 25 years, then FL and now Nashville. I thank my mother for my out-of-the-box personality and for my strengths....I was blessed to have her for 52 years. She has always been and always will always be, a part of me....and also btw why I'm as crazy as she!
Since my NOW is Art and Living as I see fit, all I will say about my past is it has created who I am today. Art is born from both pain and joys we feel from life, along with God given talents, some coming from the universal powers, others from studying and growing with knowledge, whether from books, school, or influences such as nature and fellow human beings we befriend along the way. My past pains are blessings, since it is what spurred my artistic nature to blossom.
Traveling to beautiful places in this world, experiencing different cultures (and micro-cultures), along with my own innate free-spirit and my love of the natural world has greatly contributed to my passion in the arts. Learning to live as myself and not who others expect of me, gave me the final ability to grow without encumbrances.
I am an ARTIST….first and foremost! I live, work and love with passion. Without Art and passion I feel as if there is nothing….merely existence.
Happiness, love, and a sense of knowing I am doing my best for both myself and others is what keeps me going. I try, through my art and my life to convey that and to Live my thoughts and words. Enjoy my work and get a glimpse of the world through my eyes.
