Nature is my Muse with the element of Water as my guide. I view the world with the lens of a shimmeringprism- glowing with potentiality. The goal is to create art that connects; work which inspires, soothes andheals.I incorporate irregular shapes which move around the canvas, reminiscent of the brilliant marine hues thatconvey water in 19th-century Japanese woodblock prints. Close inspection reveals rough, texturedsurfaces from the thick application of medium on linen- including oil, acrylic, ink, sand, pigments and oilpastel, reiterating the earthly and organic nature of my subject.As a multifaceted artist, with a focus on painting, illustration, interior and textile design for more than twodecades, l have cultivated an extensive list of devoted supporters. My work displays prominently in a widevariety of settings—from celebrity homes and corporate lobbies to commercial and hospitality sitesinternationally. I have exhibited internationally from San Diego to Boston and London to Beijing. In 2008-2011 I wasselected as the American Artist Representative for an exhibition in Baghdad, Iraq. My career hasskyrocketed from there.I currently live and work in the beautiful Tampa Bay area, Florida where inspiration is at every turn.
