STATEMENT
For the past few years, I've been focusing on exploring on everyday objects portrayed in contrasting light and dark settings. I celebrate nature, beauty, and color, as they infuse my work with energy and positivity. Through my art, I aim to encourage viewers to contemplate daily life and discover the beauty found in the ordinary things that surround us.
All of my works of art are one-of-a-kind and original. I use only the highest quality archival materials and technology available to ensure preservation and longevity.
As an art buyer you expect excellent customer service. In addition to available works for sale from my current inventory.
