These pages feature illustration, mixed media art, photography and graphic design created over the last 30 years. Digital illustration has consumed the largest amount of my creative focus over the last 4 years.

Mixed Media: After accumulated a questionable amount of fabric, costume jewelry, random parts and plastic toys over the years, the mixed media gallery features dolls and sculptures repurposing these random items.

Photography: I've spent most of my life either taking pictures or kicking myself for not having a camera in hand. The smartphone has improved the way I document life and collect reference images for the next piece of art.

Career Background: I graduated from NIU as a fine arts student who fluctuated from metal jewelry making to painting and then to sculpture. I was not graphic design student. My graphics career began in print shops. Over the years we transitioned from paste boards and film; to computers and digital art.

My graphic arts page showcases local history books, newsletters, association event campaigns, email banners and digital illustrations that I created in the 90s.
