Artist’s Resume

How it all began…

As an only child I became an expert in solitude.  My best friend and the subject of my first painting was my dog Trinket, done when I was 11. We spent much of our time exploring forests and sea sides.  I believe this fascination for nature, not as it is merely seen, but felt, is the genesis for the work I create today.
