"I am an artist working in mixed media, but primarily in oil pastels for the past 17 years. I often use bold colors of subject matter aimed to connect and stir ones deepest emotions, as well as evoke conversation. To challenge expectations and perceptions of art that make one feel and search beyond what one can see. I create Avant-Grande and Abstract compositions that invite one to explore diverse topics, to compel the viewer to experience with their senses. To open ones mind and connect to what truly matters. I am continuously evolving with my ever changing and expanding creative vision."
