I studied art as an art major in college, later at the Art Students League in NYC, and at the San Francisco Art Institute. I have shown in California, Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, and North Carolina. I was featured in the International Artist Magazine and have won several awards.
Through the years I have evolved though many genres, including realism, impressionism, imaginal, abstract, surrealism, and now a combination of them all.
I always seem to return to Abstracts, and for the last few years abstracts have been my focus. For me abstract painting is a direct connection to the Boundless spiritual dimension. It bypasses the symbols and forms that manifest from the infinite; like landscapes, animals, or humans, and goes directly to the light. I try to give my abstracts a multi- dimensional quality. In experiencing my artwork, I hope viewers are moved by the radiant beauty into a state of internal awe, connecting to them to their true nature of Oneness with all.
