A brief bio
All of the arts interested me:
Dance, drama, painting, writing and playing the alto sax. It was difficult to settle on just one...
But fate made the call.
Studying fine art at the university...
Was a dream I finally got to fulfill. In addition to painting; I added French, criminology, negotiating, mime, drama and a plethora of courses. In essence, I was a professional student. My painting focused on the female form because of dance studies, for a decade, observing.
At twenty-two, I renewed my vision and planned on auditioning for the Houston Jazz Ballet, but did a silly thing. I took up skydiving and shattered my ankle. I tell people:
"I fell into painting!"
Going commercial
Isn't always best for every artist. For me, it paid the bills and I got to paint; but it took me away from my burgeoning style.
I've got 5 paintings of Butchie, going. I really hope to finish one of them. :) Butchie, my beloved elder cat and companion, for the last 15 years, was put to sleep Dec. 30, 2021 and I regret that decision. I wish cats could speak human,. I wish I'd have paid more attention to his little cues...BUT, I was losing my best human friend, at the same time Butchie was declining. She passed Feb., this year, 2022. It is gonna take a lot of time to get over my Butchie Meister's death. He was my healer cat and clown. I miss him so much.
The 1980s I lost a lot:
The majority of my immediate family (two were shot): add a few friends, a house, and my sanity; I was a mess. Every time I'd get back to some semblance of work, another loved one would die. Given what is going on in the world, today, my past losses, and I won't even go into my sons' situations...I use a lot of prayer to get me through the day. Living in the NOW is something I have managed to do, after much practice. :)
Don't die with your music still in you.
Reiki
Reiki is a hands-on healing modality. It is energy healing developed in Japan over 2,000 years ago.
You don't have to b e l i e v e in it. It simply works, for I experienced it, myself, in 1990 and decided to become a
Certified Reiki Master and therapist. I have only done it for family and friends, but have decided to launch an official practice.
I will come to your home. Please use the Contact Form to message me.
