The Walt Disney Corporation purchased one of my framed 25″ x 40″ original watercolors for their corporate office in Orlando Florida.

I was awarded a Prize Award at the 1979  Beaux Arts Festival, Miami, FL.  The show was held on the grounds of the University of Miami, by the Lowe Art Museum.

 I moved to Key West in 1972 leaving Manhattan behind. This was where my journey of discovery began. Painting and getting out there showing my work at art festival.  After 5 years of learning, seeing, painting and more it was time to soon leave.  This was the last of the street festivals in Key West Florida for awhile.  That spring I left  moved to  Kauai Hawaii.

The Key West Art Center 301 Front Street opened its 1974-75 season with a reception for members and their friends this past Sunday, November 3 and introduced an extraordinary excellent Juried Show.

Under the Classification of Mixed Media winners were: First Place, “Paradisio” by Eileen Seitz
A beautifully executed painting with tonal values showing the abundant luxurious plant-life
found on this island of paradise – as many identify it, that most west of Keys, Key West.

I was awarded the 2nd place at the Key West Art Festival. It was 1973

It was 1972 and I left Manhattan on a journey of exploration. In Key West I walked into the Art Center, became a memeber immediately and began to show and sell my work.. I was given the 1st place award for my originality and unique style.

It was 1965 and I entered a local street festival in Manhattan where I was born and raised.
I entered “Red Barn in the Snow” and one 1st place in the whole festival.
I was 13 years old that spring when I knew that my art was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
