Life is short, so I create art, draw, paint, sculpt, to keep myself alive. You can't take anything f

About Me

I am a local artist in the Detroit area, currently studying in school, but also hoping to sell what work I have. At the age of 13, I started studying ceramics and wheel throwing at Pewabic Pottery in Down Town Detroit, and was in a show there. I took classes at CCS in Detroit MI and Birmingham Bloomfield Center in Bloomfield Hills MI for painting and drawing as a teenager. I've been studying ceramics at a local college, as well as take other various art classes. I'm selling work out of my home, in Detroit, though I had my work exhibited in the store Elegance by Design in Ferndale MI for three months. I was ill for quite a while, and hope to now get back to trying to get my work exhibited again. I hope to get more artwork up, in case anyone is interested in aquiring it. To contact me, send me a message on myspace, and I will get back to you. I would like a message if added as a friend.
