Art is more than a hobby for me. It's a lifelong passion. Practicing a strong Christian faith, I believe that God, the Creator of the Universe, has given each of us creative abilities that we should express. In addition to enrolling in private and public art programs throughout childhood, I studied Studio Art, at Louisiana Tech University. I went on to finish at Louisiana State University with a Bachelors' of Fine Arts in Graphic Design. Several art workshops have urged me into diverse artistic paths. Portrait painting under Frank Covino in the Italian Renaissance manner, plein aire painting, under Morgan Samuel Price and Elayne Kuehler, and abstract painting with Julie Buckner, to name a few.

A large variety of projects have kept me occupied over the years. Among them include almost anything from graphic design, painting stage backdrops, interior design, murals, portraiture, illustration, and teaching high school art. Recently, I have begun to focus on the work I enjoy most, both realistic and abstract painting. Oils and acrylics are my favored mediums, yet I often try different mixed media.

I have now entered a prolific season of my artistic journey. "Never stop learning" continues to be my creed. View my site again in the future to see how I learn, create and improve.
