Artist Resume
I have been painting for about 23 years now and have had a great time and some wonderful experiences. My real hope is that whoever views, admires or purchases my paintings or art objects will enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed creating them. I have made some wonderful new friends in the art groups I belong to. I have sold over 200 paintings and have many collectors. I also have sold lots of other items too many to mention. Because I will be 90 next year my work in only shown online and in my Gallery.
