A day in the life of a starving artist

Some of these I created for a classroom in Japan. Others for friends. And others because the ideas keep flowing from within begging to get out.

In them you can see both an American and Japanese influence…I hope.

I am pleased that I have learned much from both cultures and that both have had an impact on me.

I want the best of the both worlds to show up in my work, whether it be my drawings, my paintings or my piano playing.

Children and adults in Japan and other parts of the world will enjoy these and I hope be inspired to learn.

English is the international language. The key to the world being a smaller place is for all of us to be able to communicate. This is my part in the effort to make that happen.
