I was classically trained in Fine Arts as a youth. My mother was an artist and her father before her was an artist. She allowed me to attend professional art lessons with her regularly throughout my youth. I competed in many local, state and regional artistic competitions. After graduating high school, l attended and graduated from the University of North Texas (UNT). Then I attempted to build a professional artist career with commissioned artwork creating animal portraits, but that was just a side gig until I received Art Gallery representation in 2014. Before I spent the majority of time working the 9-to-5 job in engineering management. I continued to paint in the spare time until I retired in 2025. I've gone beyond the basic applications and was forced by an accident to learn how to paint another way. Click on the Art's Healing Power tab to learn more. Now retired from my management career and painting full-time. That means more availability for purchasing original artwork. Act soon! Click the Contact tab to inquire.
Art is my passion! Although I truly enjoy the realism painting creation process, I have found that it limits my creative juices from flowing allowing me to dive deep into making art that is uniquely different.
