Drawing and painting my entire life, after graduating with a BFA from Tyler I became an
award-winning creative director in the world of advertising. As a professor at Temple University, I brought my knowledge and experience teaching junior and senior level art direction classes. Becoming an award-winning painter, I also dedicate my time to Gabrielle’s Arts Scholarship.
FOUNDER AND DIRECTOR OF GABRIELLE’S ARTS SCHOLARSHIP (GSCAS)
Finding one’s passion in life is a gift and meant to be shared; hence the formation of this organization in memory of a lovely young woman. The mission: “Helping youth express themselves through the arts.” Twenty-five discount of the sales of my paintings will be donated to Gabrielle’s Arts Scholarship.
