Bio
Life long Artist. Mastering many disciplines to create Art with insight into the Soul. Born in Jamaica to an Office maid. Met my father for the first time at 15, when he sent for me to come live with him in N.Y. to continue my Education. Continued my artistic pursuit while attending Thomas Jefferson High School in Brooklyn while taking evening studies at Art Students League. Was included in a Ford Foundation Grant to study with professional Artists at the Vermont Academy in the Summer of 1968. Selected to continue his academic education for the next two years at Vermont Academy. The artistic influence in the form of an infant art department remain at VA and I came to the West coast to California College of the Arts in Oakland. there I received a BFA in Painting and Graphic Design.
Continued my Art practice in Venice beach and settled in Los Angeles. Rewards and Recognition followed and I was able to follow my art around the world to the present Vortex of Desert Hot Springs, where I have revisited Monumental Sculpture. lately I have opened my own Gallery in the River at Rancho Mirage.
