Thank you to everyone who attended my slide show presentation at the California Academy of Sciences

I hope you found it interesting.....I sure had a fun time
explaining the process of creating a children's book, using "A is for Anaconda, A Rainforest Alphabet" as an example & discussing what led me to follow my childhood dream of
becoming an artist.

The show was geared for children from 6 to 106 years old!
A book signingl followed the program and Giclee Prints of many of the illustrations from the book were also available for sale.

ARTIST'S VISITS
I have prepared a slide show and lecture that is suitable for children and adults. The presentation is approximatelyone hour long including a question and answer session. It focuses on the importahnce of following your dreams, how I became an illustrator, and the entire process
of illustrating a book. I can followthis presentation with a book signing if requested. My honorarium for school visits and conferences is $450 a day for presentations within the San Francisco Bay Area and $850 a day for presentations outside the San Francisco Bay Area (Plus travel expenses). I am able to give two presentations a day for any number of people. Please e-mail me with inquiries.

MY DREAM COME TRUE
Ever since I was very young I admired the amazing talents of the artists who painted billboards high above the ground. In those days, most the the billboards were painted by hand and my wish was to some day paint one myself. Today most billboards are pre-printed and simply applied to the surface, but I was delighted when the East Bay Municipal Utility District (East Bay MUD) commissioned me to paint the fawn above for their water conservation billboard. Their theme was "Water....save it for what you love." It was exhibited on Hwy 580 on the right side after coming off the Bay Bridge heading East. Another board was on Hwy 880 across from the Oakland Coliseum .
