I’ve enjoyed a 30+ year career teaching Art in the Parma City School District to students in grades K-12. Being able to use my passion for art to inspire them to explore their own individual creativity has truly been rewarding. Newly retired, I’m now excited to be able to focus solely on creating art collections that express who I am as a mixed-media artist. I love using a variety of materials and techniques to create my art. I find inspiration in nature’s beauty found here, surrounding Cleveland, from wide open spaces to small gardens in local back yards.
