My Love of Art


I have always had a passion for art. When I was a child I found myself doodling pictures of cartoon characters. As a teen I painted just about anything I found interesting. I was very fortunate to have gone to FIT -The Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. The picture you see above is me. The art teacher taught us how to draw ourselves by holding a mirror in front of us and drawing our own portrait as we saw ourselves. It was a very interesting experience to say the least. Hope you like it. I will add more artwork in the days ahead. ~
Thanks for stopping by....
