Bio:

Joy, Love, Hope
My work reflects these three words by which I live my life.  Each day I strive to seek joy, spread love and instill hope.  Life is full of challenges that can sometimes be overwhelming.  I keep positive by finding joy in life’s simple everyday pleasures–the first cup of morning coffee, a beautiful flower in the garden or the delightful buzz of a hummingbird pausing to sip some nectar.
It is through my love of creating that I capture images of such joys and bring them to life on canvas in bright colors and interesting points of view.
It is my hope that the viewer finds a positive connection to my work, that is instills a feeling of joy that such small pleasures can bring.

Artist Statement:

Each canvas begins with a sketch and a coat of paint. Layers of color are added to create a realistic interpretation of the subject. Details, highlights and shadows bring the subject to life.
