I studied color theory, gestural figure and portrait painting with Roman, Constantin and Marc Chatov in Atlanta from 1981-1988. My early work also consisted of etchings, aquatints and woodcuts produced while I worked as a printmaker at Odyssey Studio from 1978 to 1984.Â
In the mid to late 70’s I went door to door in Toronto, and later when I moved to Atlanta – selling prints, along with many weekend art festivals. I also had an Atlanta distributor who took prints at wholesale pricing.Â
In 1987 I changed my focus from depicting my dreams to abstraction, based on a strong relationship with nature. Color has always been paramount in the work. These later years in Atlanta produced quite large works.
