About
My Background
Art has been a major influence my entire life, from the days when my father would gush over the art of Larry Elmore, Boris Valejo and Frank Frazetta to finding my own passion for drawing and painting in my childhood, it’s been a driving force in my life. I attended College for art from 2005-2013, and had a studio at one of the largest art collectives in the country, The Historic Lowe Mill Arts.
Currently I am working from a home studio, and expanding my mediums and styles!
My Mediums
I use many different mediums, such as digital, acrylics, watercolor, leather and fabric. I believe that working in a single medium is restrictive to my artistic process. Each idea manifests in its own individual style.
My Inspiration
My spirituality, my love for nature, and the ocean, my fascination with mythology and fantasy, and my love of space all contribute inspiration to my work. My intention is that my artwork evokes an emotional response from the viewer. One that reminds them of some fond memory of a vacation they took, or the sense of wonder they felt the first time they picked up a comic book and saw a superhero that they identified with, their first Dungeon and Dragon’s campaign, or a re-connection with a sense of nostalgia.
