I still have the first drawing I ever did; it was a purple horse with
five legs, drawn at the age of five to be published in my mother's scrapbook. So began at an early age my fascination
with both drawing and horses.
I was involved with horses for about twenty years, and as an owner I was able to ride often.
It was a privilege that I took seriously and studied hard to be as accomplished an equestriane as I could be. Riding
is a difficult sport and it takes years, sometimes decades to master the Art of riding horseback. Above all it requires
a concentrated communication between the horse and the rider and an honest love on the part of the master for these amazingly
beautiful creatures.
I don't ride anymore, but I still enjoy creating works of art that celebrate the beauty of the equine form.
