Balcony Doorway with Chair Painting

I am a classical/jazz pianist, a painter, and a ceramic artist. Very fortunately I have been able to devote my entire life fulltime to these three passions and careers. My painting career really took off during the middle 1990s as I was completing my doctorate in piano performance. My painting interests focus primarily on landscapes/cityscapes and on abstract painting. I typically paint in acrylics or oils, usually on stretched canvas but often on board. I also occasionally work with pastels and watercolors. My ceramics passion intensified about three years ago when I was introduced to the wonderful ceramics faculty at Indiana University. My ceramics work is largely exploratory, consisting of small figurines and unusual pottery pieces.
