About the Author
I became interested in wildlife at a very young age. The woods around our home were filled with wild creatures. I spent whole days outdoors tryng to find them. Because I was naturally talented in drawing, I drew pictures of the animals I liked best, first in cartoons, gradually learning to draw them realistically, until I could draw and dpaint any aninal I saw and make it look real and alive on my paper.Everyone of the 104 children's books written and illustrated by me has been based on things I have seen for myself in Nature. I have always gone outdoors having no preconceived idea of what I might fine. Nature tells me what my day, my walk, my sightings, my drawings, and also my books will ultimately be. I am happy for whatever gift Nature gives me, a gift for the going.Please look for my books in your library and here on Amazon.
