About Me

As a child and teenager I loved to draw, and took classes through my school years. But after high school I stopped drawing, and my immersion in art can only be called sporadic at best. After a dry spell of several years I slowly began to paint again. It was still a few years, however, before I finally found my artistic voice and began to paint in earnest. Inspired by my first child, it began as an exploration of that wonderful childhood innocence and the belief that anything is possible. Through my paintings I've attempted to bring to life whimsical, happy, carefree scenes. There's enough of pain and misfortune in this world, and when a person looks on my paintings I want them to escape from all of that and into a wonderful and peaceful place in a corner of their mind. I love to paint images that reflect the beauty of nature, and then to give it a whimsical little spin. I crave color, and love to bring as much of it into my paintings as I can. All of my work is one of a kind - each is painstakingly created from my imagination. I hope the passion I put into my work touches your spirit in wonderful ways!
