Place of Residence: Rohnert Park, CA

Age: 45

Family: I am married to the wonderfully eclectic, electric and eccentric, Larry Hoffman. We have two dogs - Santo Loquasto and Quiche Lorraine, three cats - Suki Rose, Vivien Leigh, and Jules Carl, plus Bob, the Goldfish.

Artistic Discipline: I feel undisciplined, even though there was ample time for practice during the school years. I do enjoy using colored pencils, cameras, and computers. I am especially fond of PhotoShop.

Favorite Artist: My favorite artists are Maxfield Parrish, Gustav Klimt, David Lance Goines, Laurel Burch, Jess, Arthur and Lucia Matthews, Alton Kelley, Stanley Mouse and Alphonse Mucha.

Artistic Studies: Earned a BA in Studio Art, Minors in Art History and Film History from Sonoma State University. Presently, I'm working on a Master's Degree in Humanities with emphasis on Art History at Dominican College.

Recent Exhibits: I haven't exhibited since 1997, but plan to enter competitions this summer.

Current Exhibits: Nothing at the moment. I am very involved in my teaching.
