Monotypes
Prior to teaching at Randolph College I lived in New York City and participated in a very vibrant art world. It is this experience that is probably the greatest asset that I bring to the classroom. I have traveled in many parts of the world and even lived in Italy for a couple of years. This enabled me to experience firsthand many of the art treasures that different cultures have produced. The diversity within these treasures informed my belief that there are vast possibilities and approaches to making art. I see no conflict in my belief in modern art and my teaching from observation. I teach life drawing as well as realistic and abstract painting, always looking towards each student's particular sensibility.
