CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to stay with hosting families when traveling and painting.

ABOUT ME

I am a professional fine artist and gallery owner in Rockport, Massachusetts. I travel to many different states and countries to paint and exhibit my work. I am quiet, responsible and have a good sense of humor. Being a home owner I know how to respectfully treat other people's homes. I tend to work long hours and only need a place to rest my head, a shower, and if possible the use of kitchen facilities. Internet or wifi is a plus but not necessary.

PHILOSOPHY

Mutual respect.
