2021 Artworks

I am a self-taught painter and a Saatchi contributor. My art has been shown, purchased, and published. Prints of some items are available for purchase.

Since 2014, I have been painting (and drawing) consistently, studying realism, painting live and showing my work in Dallas, Texas (Art CV). In 2016, I began working with oil paints and continue to use a variety of materials/styles. Most of my practice has been focused on portraiture and the figure; though my favorite pieces are somewhat surreal with hidden elements and surprises.

Process
This year's abstract portraits employ a variety of techniques and materials and are created from subconscious memories, moments, relationships and feelings.  I am also continuing my realism practice with a focus on brushstrokes and edges.
