I am an artist living in Houston, Texas. I love to paint figurative art, portraits, and still life in oils. I crave learning more from other artists and am so grateful for the resources available so that I can continue to learn and grow.

I’m interested in seeing all the different methods, techniques, products, and styles out there. The endless possibilities make the process of creating so freeing. Painting allows me to shut out all the noise and work without restraint or bounds.

I have a background in Art History and have always dabbled in art, but several years ago I had an opportunity to dive in and it has opened up a new wonderful world. Being able to focus on capturing the beauty and goodness in life around us brings me peace and joy in the midst of chaos. Creating allows me to and see and experience life through a different lens. Everyone needs to create, it fills up your soul!

“one must work and be bold if one really wants to live. And I say, let’s paint a lot and be productive, and BE OURSELVES WITH FAULTS AND QUALITIES…” Vincent Van Gogh
