About me
It is a wonderful thing to have you take time from your busy schedule to learn a little about me.  I am deeply grateful. 
As long as I can remember I've been an artist.  I think like most high school graduates I worried that if I got into an art career I would always rely on support from my parents or starve.  So, I entered into banking.  I did fine but I couldn't escape the reacurring nightmares I had.  I was always running away from a faceless, huge, and fast thing.  The terrain was bumpy and I was panicked but I always managed to keep away from the thing I was running away from.
While visiting Las Vegas one day I decided to have my nightmare interpreted at a fortune teller's booth in Circus Circus.  She told me that I needed to stop avoiding something.  Whatever it is, haunts you.  I have always believed art haunts me.  When I'm sitting in the most unlikely place, it is in my mind.  I can't drive down the street without noticing color, line, texture, and shape. 
You'll be happy to know that ever since I started studying art in college, I have never had that nightmare again.  I am still haunted by art but is a dream rather than a nightmare. 
This is  my sweet little puppy, Spencer!
