Painting gives me the opportunity to express myself in ways nothing else does.

About

I am a Chicago and West Palm Beach based artist and licensed Interior Designer. I work with oil and acrylic paints on canvas and boards. My work is mostly abstract in nature and is an exploration of color, shape and texture. The paintings develop themselves as I work in layers building them up and sometimes scraping them back. I love the freedom of movement that a large canvas brings. I am inspired by things from nature and themes that interest me. Painting gives me the opportunity to express myself in ways nothing else does. I’m always surprised and driven by the emotions that others experience while viewing my pieces.
