My paintings are celebrations of the natural world and the emotional connections we share with it. I am drawn to subjects that evoke joy, innocence, and wonder—whether it’s the gentle gaze of a beloved pet, the pure expression of a child, or the quiet majesty of a landscape. I utilize a primary pallet as the base of all colors used, and mix to custom design personal perceptions of each tone. Each piece I create is a reflection of what makes me smile and stirs a sense of grandeur within me.

Working primarily in oil, I build each painting from dark to light, using smooth textures and realistic colors to bring my subjects to life. My style leans toward the representational, with a focus on capturing the emotional essence of the moment. These works are meant to bring warmth and beauty into any space—be it a gallery, a cozy home or private collection.

Painting has become a cherished gift in my life, something I long aspired to but only found the time to pursue after retirement. Now, I create simply for the love of it. My hope is that my art resonates with anyone who holds an appreciation for nature, humanity, and the simple joy of being alive.
