| Your Personal Biography |
I was born in Texas.
My family moved to several different states in my youth, therefore I had myself and my imagination to entertain my curiosities.
Two of the highlights were spitting rocks in the back alley to see what was inside, and searching for crystals in old mine tailings on our family vacations, as my father was a metallurgist and his interest was in visiting old mines of the West.
I started painting about 20 years ago. Mainly as a challenge to myself, to prove I could mix primary colors into secondary colors and then apply them to canvas from what I saw in pictures that I took. I discovered I was an artist.
My partner is a tile contractor and I could not stand watching beautiful pieces or remnants of tile waste being sent to the landfill, so I asked if I could do something with them.
It's been all uphill since then. I am happiest when I am creating.
