Location Corning, New York, United States
Introduction I am a childen's book illustrator and high school art teacher living in the Finger Lakes region of New York. I work traditionally in oil paints as well as digitally in Corel Painter. My first children's book entitled "I Like Gum" (Shenanigan Books, written by Doreen Tango-Hampton) was published in 2007. Since then I have had several books published in the educational market, including books by McGraw Hill and the Brown Publishing Network, and I have several additional educational books coming soon as well. Currently I am represented by Wilkinson Studios and am looking to expand my career as an author and illustrator by finding a publishing house for several trade books I have both written and illustrated.
