Biography:
Painting is a form of self-healing for me.I love color, and I have been
drawing and painting since childhood.A few favorite artists from the
past : Alfred Sisley, Albert Marquet, Paul Klee, Robert Delaunay,
Milton Avery, and Georgia O'Keefe.I am very grateful to Alberto
Mijangos, reknowned artist and teacher, who inspires us to paint in a
way that is free, spontaneous, and honest, ...always listening to what
the canvas is asking of us . I am enjoying what I am discovering about
abstract painting.I also enjoy painting expressionistic landscapes and
still lifes.
