I started painting probably like most as a hobby that became an addictive passion.
Over the years observing the art of past, and current masters, has challenged me to experiment with different mediums and styles of art before developing into the international artist I am today.
I truly love what I do every day, and am humbled that I am able to share my art with so many art lovers, dealers and collectors.
I use oil and acrylic paints with the use of palette knives and rarely use brushes anymore, this allows me the creative flow and freedom of blending colors with motion, to create what becomes the final art.
People ask me what makes my style of art so unique, and are surprised to hear that most of my work is completed in one sitting, and I actually visualize every line put on the canvas.... Once I enter my studio and start on that blank canvas I usually don't leave until that painting is completed....
I find the art of art... Is knowing when to walk away.
This was my dream.....I am doing it....and you are keeping the dream alive
