I have worn MANY creative hats in the past, including graphic designer, art director and interior decorator. Over the past few years, I have re-discovered my fine art roots which was my initial major in college. However, I earned a BVA in graphic design instead and spent my early professional career working for ad agencies, newspapers and corporations.

I primarily paint in acrylic and illustrate in graphite, charcoal and pen/ink. I love to paint and illustrate all subjects. The world is full of interesting things from landscapes to people...I can find beauty everywhere. My approach has been to study the interaction between lights and darks. I have discovered that there is much beauty in the darkness which is also a philosophy that I follow in life.... answers are sometimes revealed in the shadows.
