Hemingway wrote once that that “anyone can be a fisherman in May”
I think you can be an abstract or surreal painter any time of the year.
I attended Los Angeles City College and graduated with an Associate of Arts in Architecture in 1971. Upon graduation from LACC, I was accepted for enrollment at Cal Poly Pomona University School of Environmental Design for two quarters beginning in in 1972. After a brake of four years, I decided to pursue a degree in interior design at Cal State University, Northridge and graduated from CSUN In 1978 with a BA in 3 Dimensional Art.
After graduating from CSUN, I successfully passed the NCIDQ-National Council of Interior Design Qualification battery of tests and became a professional Interior Designer after joining the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID). Was an active member for approximately two years.
Abstract, surreal and collage are my favorite forms of expression, oil being my medium of choice. I started painting in 2010, I paint for my own enjoyment with an occasional sale or two of my works.
