- Created and sold over 1500 original paintings.
- Studied and experimented with various painting styles, methods and materials in search of my own original, intuitive style.
- Developed an online presence, originally marketing my small, mixed media art. Acquired a following thru YouTube and Etsy.
- In 2016, I began selling my art at art shows and festivals in Florida.
- Created and taught an in-person, mixed media workshop during the summer month in 2018 and 2019. Discontinued workshop in 2020 due to Covid19.
- In 2019, I switched my style from the smaller mixed-media works to the larger abstract paintings that I do today. I find great satisfaction developing these works layer by layer.
