About

I really enjoy being Creative. Not just with my art, but with life as well. I enjoy finding new things to do, interesting places to visit, unique foods to try. I think this carries over into the art I create. I'm always trying new mediums and technologies, both digital and analog. I have a strong appreciation for nature’s creativity. I love all it's bold and vibrant colors and patterns. I try and mimic those qualities in my art. Creativity is my life. I embrace it wholeheartedly!
