Acrylic Painting

Here's Looking at You

My first set of paints was given to me as a child from my parents. It’s been a wonderful journey that’s become a passion. As I’ve grown, I have an appreciation for that gift, not just a set of paints but an exciting, challenging experience always learning and seeing something new. I need to paint; to me it is like food for your soul. The more I paint the happier I am.

I am inspired by nature, striving to create what I see and make it even more then it is by exaggerating what I see making it even bigger and bolder with movement and lots of color. I hope to touch others with a spirit of inner happiness and excitement for nature’s surroundings.

My current passion is painting larger than life acrylic flowers, using transparent acrylic colors and dark contrasting backgrounds, as well as interference colors to add an impressive shimmer. I love painting to music and adding movement to every stroke. My goal is to have people look at my work and feel joyful! To stop and notice the beauty of not just my art, but nature it’s self.
