With thanks to my teachers, many great ones- the following very important to me
Mater Misericordia Academy: Sr. Mary Thomas who showed me clarity of purpose
The Baldwin School: Ruth Fackenthal who told me not to be a dumb artist- to learn about everything
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts: Morris Blackburn who told me to keep my eye on the BIG ideas behind painting
Prosopon School of Iconology: Vladislav Andrejev who taught me so much more than technique- to look for the light and beauty of the created and uncreated.
