To say that details help ground a work is an understatement.
Juxtaposed abstract and figurative techniques are used to pull out feelings, memories and purpose within my paintings.
I have been blessed to help people celebrate loved ones with original art gifted for a joyous occasion such as a wedding or in celebration of a loved ones legacy.
Every intricacy is a tribute to the client's focus. Creating one of a kind modes of nonverbal communication through visual arts helps heal in part and encourage.

Original painting, "Resilient" was created with intent to illuminate challenging spaces. Variegated blue, plum and pale peach hues integrate alongside a strikingly vivid deep gold. The gold shines in high contrast to the black acrylic background as if to communicate a persuasive statement of resilience. Even amongst the darkest of days the light can burn through.
