WELCOME
I HAVE BEEN A PROFESSIONAL GRAPHIC DESIGNER IN MY CAREER, BUT MY FAVORITE ENDEAVOR IS FINE ART PAINTING. REALISTIC ART IS THE MOST RELAXING FOR ME, ABSTRACT IS THE MOST CHALLENGING AND EXCITING.
MOST OF MY WORK IS IN ACRYLICS, OR ACRYLICS MIXED WITH PASTEL. THESE ENABLE ME TO CAPTURE A THOUGHT OR FEELING RELATIVELY QUICKLY, AND THEN CHANGE ELEMENTS TO ADD INTEREST OR HARMONY. I ALSO INCLUDE TISSUE PAPER SOMETIMES WHICH ADDS AN INTERESTING TEXTURE.
I FIND INSPIRATION EVERYWHERE I LOOK, ESPECIALLY IN NATURE. I AM INTRIGUED BY NATURE'S SPONTANEITY, AS WELL AS ITS VARIETY OF COLORS AND SHAPES. NATURE CALMS, EXCITES AND AMAZES. IT IS NEVER BORING. I HOPE THAT IS ALSO TRUE OF MY ART.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR VIEWING MY WORK. PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, SPECIAL REQUESTS, COMMISSIONS OR PRICES.
