Sculptural Feelings Painting

I am an artist steeped in the portrait. Vacillating between the study of music and art, I pursued music only to put off my study of art. I applied and was accepted to art school in Massachusetts, the first time with a scholarship, twice. I am interested in the face in a variety of media and when I haven't time, exercises in collage, which keep me sane and in the game. I am a university professor in music, but for twenty years was a high school teacher in NYC in music and visual art. A new preoccupation is my interest in spaces that have been inhabited. I like to add my own imaginative touches to such spaces to lull the impact of loss.
