Artist Biography

Art has always been an interest of mine ever since my first giant box of Crayola Crayons.   Over the last 15 years my focus has been on painting. 

I live in Colorado where I practice mastering techniques, choosing challenging projects, and staying connected to my artistic side.   I love to enter competitions and strive to improve with every brush stroke.  I’m deeply inspired by nature and confess that everything I see is a potential painting.  

I hope you enjoy my work!
