Artist Statement: My paintings feature dreamlike scenes of mysterious people, animals, and landscapes and have a storybook quality to them. Symbols inspire me, because they compress complex ideas and philosophies into immediately accessible images. I love portraying the figure and seeing how many different ways it can fit into a fantastic scene. Mediums I use for painting are acrylics, watercolor, and occasionally oils.

Background: 
Growing up as a dependent in the US Navy gave me the opportunity to live in some wonderful places as a child. Each has left its indelible mark on my imagination. I'm a full time artist, and have a
Fine Arts degree from the University of Texas at Austin. Other types of art I've done are clay sculpture, clay whistles and ocarinas, cartooning, caricatures, and illustration.
