From the beginning
I have been creating since I was a child. I love learning how to use materials and have worked in many media, from glass, to metal to photography - to name a few. Most recently, I have returned to portrait making, using pen, ink, acrylics and collage. As well as actively making art, I have also taught from my own studio, have given workshops and instructed at the college level. In addition to actively making art, I am currently the director of a commercial art gallery located in Silo City, Buffalo, NY. The Gallery at Duende is located on the second floor of the restaurant/bar/music venue known as Duende.
