Instructor Bio                                                                                       

I am a graduate of the Kansas City Art Institute.                                     

I have been Art Director for BETTER HOMES & GARDENS magazine in Des Moines, Iowa and Art director for LEE RIDER JEANS & WESTERN WEAR in Kanas City, MO.                                                                                   

I have been teaching water color painting for 60 years and  have taught over 2,000 people to paint.                                                                 

I have an Art Studio and a Gallery with over 800 paintings. 

I love teaching art and watching people who thought they couldn’t paint, get excited as they grow with their new found knowledge.
