Original. Unique. Inspired. Quirky. Soulful. Not AI.
I’ve been told my art is a bit quirky, original, different and a little weird. I can live with that. I’m not sure where my creatures and stories come from; they reveal themselves as a painting progresses. Sometimes what comes out are portraits (sort of), narratives, abstracts or some combination.
I start with a blank canvas and no predetermined plan, and the journey from start to finish propels me to a creative zone lost in the moment. It is pure joy.
I've been a lifelong artist, using many mediums. My first oil painting was at 12, then came making ceramic jewelry and sculpture, photography, illustration, and animation You name it, I've probably experimented with it before settling on painting in acrylic and also in oil.
My paintings speak to me, I hope they do to you too. I’d love to hear your feedback. and If you’d like to get advance notice of new releases and shows, please signup to my brief monthly newsletter.
I am naturally drawn to story telling in life and in art, and that's what comes out in my paintings. Strange characters and creatures yearning to tell their story and their secrets.
My "Cat People" series of paintings echo the emotions of all sentient creatures through cat people desiring to be more.
I balance narrative art with painting abstracts, where narrative also sneaks in unannounced during painting.
