I believe art is a tool for connection and problem solving. Drawing on forty years of experience across murals, fine art, and illustration to help audiences explore creativity, resilience, and growth. I offer professional services tailored for museums, universities, libraries, and art organizations.
My programming includes:
Art Exhibitions: Curated exhibitions featuring my diverse body of work, ranging from Gold Mountain series to abstract forms and contemporary paintings. These exhibitions are designed to engage viewers through visual storytelling and cultural dialogue.
Artist Talks & Keynotes: Sharing story of a journey from an immigrant child to a professional artist. These talks focus on overcoming obstacles, building a career, and finding success in the creative arts.
Creative Workshops: Teaching original techniques, including kite making at the DuPage Children’s Museum. These sessions focus on visual discovery, pattern, and artistic expression.
Institutional Residencies: Custom programming for schools and organizations that integrates visual art with history, sociology, and storytelling.
