Artist Statement:
Being an artist is the dream of my life. I've been painting with acrylics on canvas for the last ten years. I usually create fantasy images or landscapes showing natures beauty with occasional figures. Besides painting I have done some drawings, mostly portraits of people, animals and some tattoos.
My style could be considered Impressionism, a few people have mentioned it reminds them of Vincent van Gogh. It is my hope to someday have prints and limited editions made. I also hope to do book illustrations like my favorite artists Michael Whelan and Keith Parkinson whose vision, style and skill I greatly admire. Terry Redlin is another artist that I hope to aspire to whose paintings are full of color, light and warmth.
My passion is seen in my work as I create a style that is unique, using light and color that radiates warmth, brings life, mystery and imagination to the canvas. My style will continue to be honed as I always strive to create better art for all to enjoy....
