The studio I have today was the room I had as a teenager growing up. I was very fortunate to be given the house I grew up in. My drawing board is in the exact same location as it was sixty years ago when I was doing art and listening to my sixties’ music. I have come full circle and am now living an artist dream.

Looking out of my studio window surrounded by nature. This is a major inspiration for my art, and it creates a very serene environment for me. With nature surrounding me, I get into making mad passionate love to my art. As one art instructor shared with me, become one with the universe. Of course this is what I am attempting. My ventures of cycling by the ocean, flying and when I go wild boar hunting the beauty of nature remains with me long afterward with me while doing my art. At night I get visitors from coyotes, racoons, possums, and other cats. During the day I have hummingbirds, birds, squirrels, and cats which visit me and give me inspiration.

I have three little cats for my coworkers. One Tabby, aka Ah Shakespeare. One Tux aka Black Tail and one black aka Black Beauty. They keep me company and let me know when it's time to take a break to feed them, or just watch over me.
