I am an artist whose current works are created via digital platforms provided by touch screen technology. I studied traditional techniques in drawing, painting, printmaking and sculpture, as an undergraduate, with the American surrealist painter Mitchell Siporin and the American abstract sculptor, Peter Grippe. I was later mentored by the American printer and woodcarver Stanley Kaplan
