From the Artist:

For as long as I can remember, I have loved to draw and paint. My mother was an artist. We would paint together.I can remember in kindergarten painting Christmas balls. In second grade,I remember painting a large bulletin board for the hallway. In third grade ,my teacher let me build a teepee and paint pictures on the side. Fast forward to college where I studied psychology and painting. After receiving my Masters Degree in Guidance and Counseling,I went to work for the Baltimore City Public Schools.I enjoyed 35 wonderful years as a guidance counselor and later school principal. After receiving my doctorate, I taught Educational Leadership at Loyola and Johns Hopkins universities. I retired in 2009 and returned to my forever love-painting. I consider myself an abstract expressionist. I create pieces filled with color and varied elements of texture. While always visually interesting, the depth of the composition creates movement and excitement along with a sense of wonder. Once installed, the piece will "make the room". My work has been shown throughout the Baltimore-Washington area and is in private collections worldwide.

Acrylic paintings are particularly vulnerable to heat.Do not hang or store your artwork where it may be in harm's way due to direct sunlight. The same is true for avoiding areas prone to moisture and humidity to avoid issues such as mold growth, which can be a problem with acrylic paintings.
