ARTIST PROFILE

I enjoy my work and look forward to each new assignment and client. I have done illustration and graphic design in giftware, fashion, advertising and cultural fields for both profit and non-profit organizations. My work has included invitations, posters, mugs and other three-dimensional giftware items, newspaper advertisements to television commercials.

I have lived in the St. Louis, San Francisco,
Dallas and Boston areas. I moved from Boston back to St. Louis.

I bring to my illustrations a background of solid hand drawing and design skills. I work in gouache, pen and ink and, in Adobe Illustration on a Macintosh Computer.

Many of my illustrations are human,
animal and food images.
