Artist Statement
There is no definition in any dictionary that can describe how much I enjoy being an artist. Since I was in high school I always considered myself an amateur, now, I have set my sights on my professional goals. I love the fact that God has allowed me to be creative and express His beauty in my works. Having the ability to draw and paint the beauty of human nature, along with the pure essence through my work is the greatest expression of love and life I can think of. By having a passion for seeing, feeling and experiencing my surrounding, I am proud and excited to be able to apply this in a medium for others to view.
Telling a story with a single piece of art is what I truly want to achieve. Evoking emotions from my audience by tapping into a memory, a dream or a precious moment in time, is exactly what I strive to do. Writers have the ability to put into words a story that can inspire visual definition. My ambition is to inspire words and stories from my art.
Portraits of your loved ones can say a thousand words, as well as freeze a moment in time and memory. A beloved pet can be captured in their loving enviroment. Your home or the family homestead can render a beautiful gift for someone's wall. Please do not hesitate to use your imagination and help me to create your new accent to your home.
To place an order go to the Contact Page and you can email me with questions, photographs and your information. You will be contacted prior to completion to discuss your works. Prices vary according to number of people or pets to be done and the sizes requested. All creations will be completed on acid-free paper or the canvas size of your choice. ~Thank You
