Abstract Expressionist Artist
I was raised by art historians, Charles and Florence Montgomery, who imbued my childhood with the wonders of art.
- They provided experiences and exposures to both the history and the current trends in architecture, the decorative arts, and the fine arts of painting and sculpture around the world.
- Of the many books and exhibits that I saw, the pivotal one was an international abstract exhibition they took me to at age fourteen in the Hague of Holland.
- The power of the work ignited an inspiration and sent me on the road to becoming an abstract artist.
- Painting was my initial technique, however, by 1991 the computer’s potential lured me to virtual painting.
- I owe everything to my parents who gave me so much. The rest was persistence and hard work.
