My Photography
I love to dabble in photography using a Nikon D5300 with a Tamron 18-400mm lens. I began this passion in 1996 when I purchased my first digital Cannon Rebel. That got stolen. Bought another and have since moved on to Nikon.
My Painting
I have been painting with acrylics and watercolors for a few years but recently took interest into encaustic painting. It was at a museum in Seattle where I first learned about encaustic. Beeswax, demar resin and a heat gun? Yeah, I am in! It takes a bit of investment from the standard paint tools, skill even to learn to melt the wax so it’s safe to say I am still in my “learning curve.”
Lately I have ramped down on my web design business and took a couple volunteer gigs. One at the VA Hospital as an Ambassador and the other at our church’s resale shop, Boomerangs. I so enjoy the people I get to help and work with!
Prior USAF – first tour of duty was in the Philippines, Clark AF Base. Second tour was at Kirkland AF Base, Albuquerque, NM. I did medical administration working in the hospitals. Honorable Discharge 1985.
