As a visual artist I am self-taught, at least in the technical sense, and I did not begin to paint until I reached my mid-fifties. Since then, for the past fifteen years, I have dedicated my energies to developing artistic competence and to representing my ideas and visions in a variety of media.
In the 1960s I lived and traveled for several years in Europe before returning to the United States and commencing graduate
studies in English. I began my Ph.D. as a single parent, receiving the degree in 1979 from the University of Missouri-Columbia. After spending most of the eighties and nineties in the San Francisco Bay Area, my birthplace, I returned to
Missouri upon retiring in 1999. My retirement was brief—within a year I was teaching at the university and beginning to exhibit my work around town.
My late-blooming career as an artist was a surprise, an unexpected gift. I drew as a child, and as an adult I continued to do occasional pen-and-ink drawings but never considered pursuing art seriously.But a few years before my move to Missouri I began a series of paintings that I have worked on ever since. They feature hybrid creatures that partake of various species characteristics and that are often intensely engaged with one another across the species divide. A dog and a deer share a meal; a cat dances with a bird; a stag lifts up a small possum; mouse-girls wearing raccoon masks lie in
bed with their pet cats. These creatures visited my imagination suddenly and vividly. My first such visitor was a white cat in a yellow dress, who inspired a not very good painting of a very compelling creature. I’ve gone on to translate these creatures into other media: collages, shrines, dolls, even a
deck of cards. Collectively, they constitute a world that resembles ours but is more joyful, more loving.
I moved to Minneapolis in 2010 and am now just beginning to participate in the art community here. In Columbia I had a number of individual and small group shows at the University
of Missouri, Stephens College, and various public places around town. I also exhibited single works in larger shows, where I won awards for paintings and for mixed media pieces. I taught several art workshops and was a founding partner
in two Columbia art galleries: The Arsenic Leopard and Spare Parts Gallery. I continue to sell work at another gallery
there and now have pieces in U.S. private collections from Hawaii to New York City as well as in Mexico.
My work has been greatly influenced by art of the past, from medieval manuscript illuminations to early modern
painters such as Matisse, Picasso, and the German Expressionists. I
tryto learn from the artists whom I admire by echoing what they have
done, as a formof homage. They afford lenses through which I can look at
the creatures of my own imagination. In the end, my broadest commitment is this: I believe in imagining better worlds, representing them in art, and working to make our own environments resemble our visions.

As I recently moved from Columbia, Missouri, that is where I won the following awards--
