I am a bay area artist whose paintings unapologetically celebrate our individuality.
My creative process begins with references from significant incidents personally experienced or by people I feel compelled to share their story. I believe I speak to and acknowledge individuals who are not afraid to excel against the odds and uninhibitedly live without boundaries.
I had an Interior Design firm for over two decades prior to exploring the creative freedom of painting.
Graduated with a Bachelors of Fine Arts, Interior Architectural Design from California State University, Long Beach.
I paint with oil paint on paper, wood panel and canvas.
