Artist’s Biography:
I have exhibited by work extensively throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and the North State for over twenty five years. During that time I frequently participated in group shows as well as individual art exhibitions, winning many awards for my paintings. I maintained a studio at the Belmont Arts Council for over a year, demonstrating oil painting and participating in their exhibits.
I moved to Cottonwood, California in November 2005, because I was inspired by the natural beauty that abounds in the area. I currently maintain a studio in my home that overlooks Mt. Lassen. I create my work from my photographs and images that I often receive when I meditate.
My technical training was at the College of San Mateo, however, I consider myself to be largely self-taught. My philosophy is that we should discover our inner core of creativity during our life’s journey and bring those lessons to our art.
Artist’s Statement:
My art represents my personal connection with spirit. When I connect with the magic of the universe everything flows with inspiration and guidance. My paintings frequently reflect a lonely quality which I feel represents each soul’s individual journey through life. The style of my paintings border between surreal and romantic but they always represent my unique perspective.
