I’m a native Floridian who has spent the major part of my life in Orlando and currently enjoy being a local artist, designer, and arts advocate. I was first educated by my mother, Vicki Jones, who is also a local artist, and then formally at the University of Central Florida. My favorite subjects are people and zoomorphism, something I like to refer to as anti-portraits. Although my mediums vary, I’m known mostly for my colored pencil and gesso works. 
 
I’ve spent a good deal of time volunteering and serving the community in various ways: I support local arts through active memberships in the Orlando Museum of Art, the Cornell Museum, the Maitland Art & History Museum, and the Florida Chalk Artists Association/Chalk Art Nation. I’ve had the honor to serve multiple times on the United Arts of Central Florida grants panel, assisting the organization with awarding grants to individual artists and arts organizations with my fellow jurors. I’ve also juried several art competitions, one of my favorites being an ecologically-oriented exhibition for Orange County that the one-and-only Terry Olson invited me to judge. I have been the marketing chair for The Associates of the Orlando Museum of Art, and served on the curating committee for many years, also chairing many 1st Thursday events there. I served for over nine years as the Visual Fringe Producer (2002-2011 events) with The Orlando Fringe Festival, and continue to serve as seasonal support staff.
