After studying art history at Thomas Edison State College with advance studio studies at the University of the Arts in Pennsylvania, I taught high school art for several years. Then, in 2006 I became a licensed Realtor and a certified home staging and interior decorator.
While I was working in Real Estate I came into the realization that I enjoyed the process of organizing, decorating and staging client's homes more than the service of representing buyers and sellers.
In 2008 I expanded my business through the Frugal Home Design website and starting writing about home decorating expression through popular online publications; Suite101 being my favorite, of course.
Today my time is spent manipulating oil on canvas, decorating and organizing living spaces, and writing about visual expression in any medium that grabs my attention.
Please, If you enjoy my writing - visit my web sites.
Frugal Home Design is about repurposing the furniture, features and accents in your home to create an entirely new interior design look.
Reorganizing, repurposing, recycling, restoring is what Frugal is all about. Over time home interiors can become dated, tired and unappreciated. By visiting my website you can be introduced to professional decorating and organizing tips to bring new life to those spaces in amazingly affordable ways by using what you already own. It's fun and most importantly, frugally fabulous interior decorating. You will be amazed at what you can do with your "stuff".
When I first purchased this simple counter top kitchen appliance I had no idea it would be so much fun. So much, in fact I found myself compelled to spread the word by creating this blog. The NuWave Infrared Oven will revolutionize the way you cook! It certainly has mine.
Take a look at my original artwork. It hasn't been updated, because I am studying a new medium; color pencil. I'll be submitting some fresh stuff in a few months.
I've put together this website for anyone who wants to improve their drawing skills. There's information here for pencil drawing artists of every age and who are at different levels. Check it out now!
Home Remodeling and Design Software
For anyone interested in remodeling, redecorating or simply trying out a new look in a room this software is the perfect tool to take a look at. Any room can be rendered in a 3D format from software that is easy to learn and use. Visual experimentation will save time, money and mistakes by testing before you even think of picking up a hammer or shopping for kitchen cabinets. I use it all the time when working with clients.
Discover Your Interior Design Style
This is a product I designed to help anyone who feels confused about what their personal interior decorating style actually is. I've put together a series of fun questions for the client to answer. The answers are then submitted and assessed which determines the 2 dominant styles revealed by the answers given. For a more detailed explanation of this one of a kind product, hit this link; it will give you further details.
Sandra Bullock and I both have a strange fascination with this body art. Tattoos can be a dangerous attraction.
