Artist Statement: 

    Ever since I can remember, I have loved to draw.  As I’ve become an adult, it has become second nature to look for visual interest in everyday life and use it for inspiration for new ideas.  My style ranges from the abstract, impressionist, or surreal to realistic, depending on the mood or tastes of those I am creating for, including myself, because creating art is, essentially, what an artist does for oneself as much or more as for others.  In the past, I have given much of my artwork away, including pictures of people I have drawn.  Although much of the artwork on the site is of nature, I find that creating two-dimensional and three dimensional artwork of people and animals is much more interesting.  Someday I hope to do bronze sculpture and oil painting on a regular basis.
