About

I retired eight years ago as a full time art teacher in the Fort Worth I.S.D. where I was employed for 17 years. Before I was a teacher, I worked as a graphic artist for 20 years. I have a Bachelor of Fine Art’s degree from U.T.A. & a Master of Liberal Art from T.C.U. My love of Art is a passion that I will always enjoy & I get so much enjoyment from inspiring others in my passion. Anybody can learn how to draw or paint. It doesn’t matter whether you are a beginner or have been creating art all your life. You can always learn new techniques, perspectives and applications. I have taught all ages; children, teens, and adults.
