Education:
Post-baccalaureate
work in drawing and painting at PSU, 1986-87
Currently
I am teaching part-time at Portand State University. Before I
moved to Oregon I taught 18 years at DeKalb College which is
located in Clarkston, Georgia -- in metro Atlanta. For the
last three years I have taught Life Drawing at PSU.
In
the last 29 years I have taught a variety of art courses
including: Beginning and Advanced Drawing, Color Theory,
Beginning, Intermediate and Figure Painting. In my teaching I
stress the importance of a strong foundation in basic skills
such as drawing and design.

favorite books on art:
