ABOUT ME AND THE SITE

So why an artist?  Lots of reasons, but one big catalyst. In the space of thirty days, I was diagnosed with two serious, incurable conditions - Parkinson's disease (PD) and a very rare form of lymphoma. My interest in art began building in subtle ways after the diagnoses, and has grown with my medical adventures, particularly the Parkinson's. I have become convinced that there is a real connection here, and it has been a blessing.  It's now been 14 years - and both my health and my artwork seem to be improving.

​This site is dedicated to our departed friend, Gilbert “Nick” Nicholas, whose love of art and constant support played a big part in this story as well. We miss him, and think of him often.
