"I began painting as a child because I grew up in a creative environment with a beatnik, radical, composer-playwright-pupeteer for a mom. There was a creativity ethic. This was the hippy 60's. It was not cool to have a conventional job and money was out of fashion. The government was bad and the workers where the salt of the earth.
I was taken to museums, the opera, and intellectual gatherings, leftist political meetings and hung out with mom and her adult friends most of the time as a pre-schooler. Back stage at gigs and rehearsals I always had my crayons and sketch pad.
During the 1966 National farmer workers march from Deleno to Sacramento I sat in the back of the press van and set up a little desk out of a crate for my drawing projects while we joined Caesar Chavez in his struggle for decent wages. I was the youngest person to finish the march although I only walked about 8 miles per day.
By the age of ten I had a small subscription of 4 for one of my comic books. I would send this to 4 of my friends from our hotel room in Hong Kong and other stops along the way during our puppet tour back in 1970.
Growing up in an unstable environment, with 16 moves and at least 20 different schools, leaving friends behind every few years, drawing and writing where the only stable things in my life.
As an adult I have always continued with my creative projects while finding ways to make a living using my passion for holistic health and the mystical. I began searching for a way to end my chronic fatigue and depression while pursuing a career in illustration in my early 20's. I studied dance which led me to movement body work whole foods and alternative living to heal myself.
Presently I am working toward integrating artistic and holistic passions in my web design business by creating edible garden landscapes and permaculture environments at www.radical-freedom.org
