“I feel my paintings are a personal reflection of the world around me. I enjoy creating works of art that are inspirational and uplifting. Art has been a lifetime passion for me. Whether it is painting, drawing, studying, or enjoying various forms of art, I never seem to tire of it. I enjoy the use of bold color with an emphasis on light and shadow. I believe that is where the real drama comes from in reflecting the beauty of creation. Whether painting and sketching outdoors or in my studio, I feel incredibly blessed to live on the Central Coast and to be an artist.”
