More shows followed at the Southern California Art Exposition my grandmother Theresa Steinhardt was a well-known oil painter in New York and was friends with Albert Einstein in the 1940’s.
I have always wanted to express time and space through my art. Useing imagination to express our reality. Unfortunately, she died before I was born. but the influence is there. In 1983 I created murals for Juvenal Hall in San Diego I received coverage in the San Diego union and another mural a Christ church in San Diego the reverend Robert Ard . More murals and shows followed. In 1995 I painted my first 2 story mural in Encinitas, CA on Hwy 101 now defunct heaven on earth book store. In 1994 in went to Jakarta, Indonesia as a traveling American artist. I sold animal paintings there in 2012.

Please tell us about your art.
My art is surreal bright colorful and imaginative using acrylic paint and colored pencils my message is to have the freedom to go beyond reality to that world in your mind where anything can happen
As an artist, how do you define success and what quality or characteristic do you feel is essential to success as an artist?
I think true greatness in art is to share your own unique originality and imagination and to express what goes beyond reality , words or a photograph
How or where can people see your work? How can people support your work?
