I am very pleased to have found The Art House.  It feels very friendly and seems to have a great sense of community. A little about myself...hmmm...I guess it should be art related... have a Bachelors of Art in Fine Art with special studies on the human figure, a Bachelors of Science in Education, I have hours in Commercial Art and Anthropology ( love that stuff...ask me about my dream job). I have studied privately under Delena Dotson and Richard Barton [link] where I served served as a model for Mr. Barton in his adult figure drawing classes. I am an Environmental and Spatial Technologies facilator, a College Mentor and Cohort Educational Specialist that works with various universities in our state and their art department students who work as interns under me. I have done private tutoring through the local Arts Center and on my own and have taught night Community Courses at the local University. I have been in the field for over 20 years where I have illustrated numerous book jackets and interior illustrations from Science Fiction,Romance, Children's and Fantasy novels.  My work has been featured in ImagineFX, Fangoria, and A Companion in Zeor.  I have also illustrated RPG card and am currently working on a Graphic Novel adaptation for The House of Zeor and a Fantasy RPG mobile game.   I I like videogames.....there...I said it....I am an adult gamer but I come by it honestly...I started with PONG...Oohh and I am a Trekkie!!!
