Bevy of Beauties

As an oil painter of small vibrant palette knife paintings, I seek to create a sense of place, capturing the light, energy and soul of my subjects.

With my knife, I describe what I see in layers of paint -- sometimes loading it on in bold strokes, sometimes sgraffitoing by drawing or scratching into the wet paint, often almost sculpting the paint to tell my story. My goal is to create a joyful and sophisticated work of art that speaks of the beauty found all around us, painted with love and thoughtful abandon.

My artwork wants you to know that within it is a poetic story about a small piece of this planet, its atmosphere, light and color, its energy and soul. My artwork wants you to know that this story is alive and is waiting to be found by you.
