ARTSY FRIENDS

My instructor, teacher and mentor!  I typically refer to her as "the best teacher on three continents."

From Scotland, to South Africa and now the U.S., she is an amazing instructor and a dedicated volunteer helping members of our community.

Artists, Teachers and World Travelers -- they produce amazing pottery and other art creations. Plus, they have proven to be the ultimate tour guides through Chicago's spectacular art museums.

An artist, photographer and illustrator who creates drawings along with wry and witty cartoons.   Arnie also shares my character flaw of attempting to capture the perfect sunset.  He has come closer to achieving that goal, than I.

The Kansas City Art Institute creates some of the best artists in the Midwest.  I am fortunate to know a number of graduates and current students.  They, along with other amazing friends, have been a source of constant inspiration and help.
