I am a freelance artist, teacher and consultant, who enjoys working in a variety of different materials and mediums. I always say a "jack of all trades" master of none, but having fun! My favorite form of art medium is Sculpture, although I work in variety of other forms to keep the "hands" busy and "mind" creating!

    1. I only learned how to drive a Legends Race Car, back in the day. These Sprint cars are FREAKING crazy! People like Tony Stewart and Jimmy Johnson began their racing careers in these. Kurt Bush was racing in one of them last night, with Kyle Bush in the announcers booth.
