Passing through Iowa City, Iowa in 1973 gave me the opportunity to study with Hans Breder and Professor Hu at the University of Iowa School of Art and Art History. I achieved degrees in Multi-media/video and Design.

I am a mixed-media artist and a member of International Union of Mail Artists. My work has been shown in group exhibits nationally and internationally.

This exhibit features a series of recent works titled Shreds. Inspiration is both political and philosophical. Upcycled, hand scribbled, painted papers are fed into a shredder. The unreadable strips are transformed when layered together to create Asemic writing visuals, concrete and visual poetry. Visions from the corner of the eye.

For artists, an upset paradigm is an opportunity to invent.
