I am an artist and art teacher, which represents two of my
life-time passion: art and teaching. I may be classified as a
painter, yet my artistic interests go beyond painting. In fact,
my artistic career started as a costume designer for Yale
Repertory Theater. Despite having enjoyed my job and
company there very much, I was driven by an inner urge to
paint, and the urge brought me to California, New Mexico,
Maui, and even to seemingly far-from-artistic places such as
Iowa, Minnesota, and South Korea. And coming full circle, I
live now in Los Angeles.

Through the journey, I painted and painted and
painted, dotted by occasional shows and "art parties."
My works have been bought by diverse clientele,
ending up not only in the U.S. but Scandinavia,
Australia, Italy, and South Korea. Specifically, you
can find my works at either Mindful Nest gallery in
Burbank/Santa Monica, CA, or Three Ravens gallery
in Ardmore, PA.
Pursuing the other side of my passion, I have been teaching children art ¾ how to draw realistically and paint in oil ¾ as a program director of Mission Renaissance, a private art school headquartered in Glendale, CA, for four years.

It is said that teaching is the best of learning, and I
completely agree; teaching children not only gives me
fulfilling satisfaction but matures me as an artist as well.
I am reluctant to translate my work in words because I
believe art is essentially ineffable, but risking
oversimplification, I will say that simplicity and
playfulness are two targets I set in my artistic pursuit.
