I am a freelancer. I create web sites with written content, provide graphics and art services, and love to write and illustrate children's books. My specialty niche is collecting and restoring antique purses. I also love creating advanced coloring books and posters in fine detailed line art.
I retired from a 15 year career with GNS in 1996. I started freelancing from home with web design, book illustration, and still enjoy teaching art. I am a Published illustrator of children's books and have enjoyed working in community projects producing murals, involving underprivileged kids. I love making jewelry, writing short stories, researching antiques and restoration, woodworking, and trying anything creative.
I have been currently working on various inventions. The newest to hit the market soon, is the Chaboose. Maybe, this will be the one to make me millions.
