Visual art has always been my primary outlet for imagination and creative expression, and I believe it can be greatly enjoyable for everyone. I graduated with a BFA from Maryville University with an emphasis in painting and printmaking, minor ceramics. I have extensive experience with drawing from the figure, landscapes, and still life using charcoal, graphite, oil pastel, chalk pastel, colored pencils, ink, and more. I believe drawing is essential for a strong foundation in any fine art, as well as being a beautiful art form on its own. I enjoy working with children and adults of all ages.
