Since my earliest memories I have been drawing and viewing the world as color, line, and forms.
From my mom comes the drawing skills and love of dance, from my dad comes the great love for music,
animals, land and the lake and the interest in science and metaphysics and from me comes the constant
stream of mind pictures which I must try to re-create for others to see.
