I Don't Look Down To An Audience.

It Helps To Know There Is Going To Be Continuity.

I Attended The High School Of Industrial Arts And Studied With Many Great Artists As Painting Is Something That You Never Stop Learning About. Actually, In High School There Was A Time That I Was Thinking About Just Concentrating On Painting And I Asked My Music Teacher, Mr. Sondberg, For Advice And He Encouraged Me To Stick With The Music As Well. So All My Life I Have Been Singing And Painting.

We're In An Era Where The Demand Is For Immediate Hits That Are Destined To Become Obsolescent. Six Months Later, Everyone Forgets The Artist And The Tune. It's Become Like A Con Job. Producers, Engineers, Lawyers And Accountants All Make Money, But The Artists Don't.

I'm Not The Type Of Person Who Likes To Look Backwards. I've Always Felt Compelled To Move Forward And I've Never Been One To Dwell In The Past. All The People I've Met, All The Places I've Been, And All The Things That I've Done Have Simply Been Part Of Who I Am.

Every City I Go To Is An Opportunity To Paint, Whether It's Omaha Or Hawaii.
