For years I have been in direct marketing with a number of related businesses. My passion is art but frankly, it is a tough business...few artists really make a decent income unless, ofcourse,you are a Rauchenberg! So my experience ranges from entrepreneur to artist! Presently, I have a number of direct marketing programs. I believe it is important in this day and age with this economy to have multiple streams of income!

When not busy with these businesses, I spend time at my studio in Naples Florida where I teach and mentor other artists. (If you are ever in Naples I would love to have you come by for a cup of coffee!

On a personal note, my children are grown and I am enjoying my grandchildren which stretch from California to New England! I love to plan trips to see them and of course they come to Florida especially the snow flies in New England!

Near and dear to my heart is my work in Haiti where, I work with an orphanage in Les Cayes. I look forward to spending more time there working with the children. The poverty is beyond description and this country is only an hour off our Florida coast!

Life is full and exciting. I love the variety of my activities. I tend to play "out of the box" and treat life as I do my paintings..."What if"is a daily occurance along with "be willing to step out and risk a failure" That is where the growth is!
