| Your Personal Biography |
I was born in the northeastern US in 1961 of Dutch and Albanian descent. I began drawing and painting at age three. Living in western Europe as a teen, I began working toward a career in fine art and soon moved into the graphic design and illustration field to support my family.
I also produced musical sound recordings with the rock band 'Into The Void', "In The Midst" and most recently " Crimson Stain" along with some solo works.
My studies in fine art started with Richland College from artists Tom Motley and Jim Stover, and at UNT in Denton Texas. I worked extensively as a publishing illustrator and eventually moved into digital graphics at Brookhaven College under Jerry Hill.
My future goals are to combine art and music into a complete sight and sound production.
I have many to be thankful for, especially fellow-artist and friends Steve Miller and Don Adair for their
mentoring and patience over the years, as well as spiritual mentors Andy Anding and the late Rev. Ron Scott. Without them I dont know how I would have made it. And certainly I am grateful to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who picked me up out of the darkness I had fallen into, and resurrected my life and calling, giving me a 2nd chance. To Him be the glory. The talents are His. I just invest them so He can receive the interest. And He faithful provides and meets my needs. Many helped in my recovery from a tragic accident as well as an illness that threatened my artistic career and even my life. I am a walking miracle and will continue my journey of sharing the love and life of God, Adonai, Jeshua, the Holy Spirit. They are worthy to be praised.
I currently resides in Dallas Texas with my teenage daughter. I hope to live out west someday, perhaps Oregon or BC, but do enjoy being close to family and friends in Dallas.
I have three children and 3 grandsons. I am grateful to them all. |
