As I enter the third act of my life, I have found myself a creative niche that has brought me my greatest happiness as well as personal enrichment. As Studio Manager and Lead Artist at Wine & Design, I am given reign to fuse both my managerial experience and art abilities to a glorious fusion. As a result, I have grown in a very short time as an artist as well as instructor. My personal art has also seen a catharsis... Up until now, my skills had been utilized best in the field of special effects makeup, but now I enjoy the freedom of a fine arts vocation as well, wherein I can allow my personal creativity to indulge itself in projects as far ranging as nature to the human form.
