Art to me is an expression of my reality. I visualize on an emotional level. When others love my work it tells me i'm on the right track.

I love painting expressive realism mixed with loose backgrounds. Emotions are my strong suit whether it be with animals or people. I have a subject that is seen with clarity so you know what i'm getting at. In my landscapes, i'm a bit looser and i go for colors mostly. My focal point brings it all together. I usually use acrylic paint. I've done pastels as well.
Where do you find inspiration?This comes from within. i love quiet soulful moments in my paintings. I love bringing it all together whether it be with light, presence or texture.
What would you do with $25,000?i would invest it in my painting needs with make more room to be able to create without cluttering up my living space.
