Mission Statement: I want to bring awareness to wildlife while also creating a personal connection between the viewer and my work.
I’m a professional mixed media artist specializing in wildlife and botanical fine art, who currently resides in Southern California. Through the uses and techniques of watercolor, gauche, colored pencils and pastels, I create highly detailed works of art on watercolor paper. I am known for painting with tiny brush strokes and razor-sharp pencils. My work bridges the gap between painterly looseness and photorealistic precision. I try to capture the essence and spirit of my subject matter through their eyes. Breathing a soul into every painting I create.
I am a self-taught artist who has been painting since a young age. In the past, my art was the light through dark times, so I try to create an emotional experience for my audience. I want to bring awareness to wildlife while also creating a personal connection between the viewer and my work. My art is way to express my thoughts, feelings, and emotions in ways sometimes words cannot. Painting the beauty of these animals brings me joy, and is even more rewarding when I witness how much my art resonates with the viewers in such a meaningful way.
With over 10 years of printing experience, I personally make all of my giclee prints using the highest quality materials of archival pigments on museum-grade paper. Guaranteeing the highest quality of products for my customers. My giclee prints and original paintings have hung in many galleries, shows, and festivals all across Southern California. I look forward to where this journey takes me, and bringing more joy to the world with my art.
