I have been making oil pastel paintings for about four years. I have had solo exhibitions at the Howell Public Library in November 2004 and the Academy of Art and Gallery of Highland Park in December 2004. I displayed my work at the 2005 Highland Park Arts Festival. In 3/06, I displayed and donated artwork to the Highland Park Centennial Art Auction. I have sold numerous paintings to private collectors and other individuals. I was born in 1972 in Philadelphia, PA and received art instruction at the Academy of Art of Highland Park.
