I am an impressionist painter, teacher and performance artist. I have been in the visual arts all my life and make a living doing paintings, but have always been a musician (singing, mostly). I felt a large, gaping hole in my life by not being in a band-always being the spectator! So I took matters into my own hands and learned how to compose songs in GarageBand....(that was in November 08, and over 90 songs later, here I am!)
