Thank you for visiting!
Born into a quiet Boston suburb in 1965, I was brought into this family as the 5th generation child to be born in the New England area. A great legacy to say the least. After a lifelong journey, I now find myself in the middle of the Country, to start over, once again. My home far away, far from the sea I loves and yearn for, I am happy now, but hear the coast calling my name, but alas, it is not to be.
At the tender age of three, one would find me pouring out my soul all over the hallways and walls of this modest east coast home only to find myself staring into a corner for simply doing what came so naturally for me at this young impressionable age.
It was the first of many unfair realities that I would encounter in my life. I just recently began drawing again (Oct ''07) I have not picked up a pencil since, well a very, very long time. I find it hard to get back into it but enjoy it too much to stop again.
I Never painted or used color at all, (does painting the home count?)I have been tempted to try, but scared to death! I have NO art training whatasoever,(''cept High School - Architechtual drafting) but refuse to let that stop me! When I am drawing, I constantly lose myself in the drawings and escape the world. It''s less time having to spend dealing with "issues" that are not really all that important anyways. (DRAMA!!) Sheesh, watch days of our lives already!
I get satisfaction from knowing that someone else is enjoying what comes naturally to me and that I myself love to do it as well!

Do you set specific goals for your sketchbooks, or are they more freeform?
Mathematicians and Theorists Use Sketchbooks
When you picture mathematicians and theorists at work, what comes to mind? Maybe it’s a chalkboard covered in equations or a computer screen with lines of code. But what might...
