My happiest childhood memories involved art. I’ve always loved to draw and paint. Time evaporates; and to this day I lose myself in the creative process unfolding. Additionally, my professional interest in nutrition has led me very naturally to the subjects of the majority of my still life paintings.


I studied in Paris at the Musee de Louvre: and, while living in Spain I studied & apprenticed with a Grandmaster. These experiences have given me first-hand exposure and knowledge not only of Realism, Ultra-Realism, Tromp L’Oeil and Impressionism, but also the understanding and appreciation of the basis of Renaissance painting. Every day I feel so fortunate to be able to make art. The true joy is in the creating. But it is always a special gift when someone finishes the equation by understanding and enjoying my art.
