There is no better place to be than in the middle of creating a good painting
I am a self taught working painter and lawyer. I love color and the idea of entering a painting and seeing what comes out on the other side.
I primarily work in saturated vivid watercolor on paper, very different from most watercolor painters. My abstract paintings are usually large (some 3 by 5 ft) original paintings mounted on board with additional layers of resin and paint. I enjoy the physicality of painting big and the messiness of pouring the resin.
I have been recognized in both the art and corporate world with solo corporate exhibits (American Airlines) 50 juried exhibits (winning 'Best of Show") and am in collections across the U.S.
My quirky girls, trees and landscapes (which are on paper to be framed or can be mounted on board and finished with encaustic) are all from my imagination.I know it's a good painting when my girls start to look back at me.
The best compliment I have ever received was that my paintings always start a conversation. I paint because it makes me happy.
I hope they make you happy too!
