My wife and I met Pamela and her husband through our mutual love of dogs, especially the Bouvier des Flandres breed. We live only twenty miles away, and when we first visited her home and studio, I was startled by all the beautiful images I saw. I realized we also had a mutual love of art.

I decided to be an artist in third grade, after the response I got from my drawing of the Mayflower ship landing at Plymouth Rock. After getting my B.F.A. from UCLA, I went to the Art Center in Los Angeles.

I always looked for art related jobs while going to school, like silk screen printing, sign painting, and architectural rendering. At Art Center, I got interested in advertising design and got my first full time job as an art director in New York City. In that position I was hiring artists, but I wanted to be one of them. So I started illustrating for other art directors I had met. I went freelance and drew storyboards for commercials and illustrations for ads and learned how to airbrush. Several years later I took up watercolor and struggled to make a living in that medium. But I really found my niche when I discovered the world of digital art. For the past 14 years I've been doing digital illustration and animation for a variety of clients, many of them in the medical field.
