Acrylic painting — large expressive brushwork

Acrylic

My Medium

Working in acrylic most of my life, I focus on shapes, texture, and color to evoke emotions. Painting with large, quick strokes using acrylic paint and different varnishes on canvas — my subject matter varies from abstract color fields to contemporary organic shapes. As I paint, I let my feelings within guide the brush until the personality of the canvas is unveiled.

Encaustic

A New Love

Encaustic is my new love. I am constantly exploring new techniques with translucent layers — fusing beeswax, damar resin, and embedding different materials to create smooth and textured surfaces. I started with small mini paintings, growing into larger formats as my technique develops.

Arizona desert landscape — botanical garden inspiration

Inspiration

The Desert Landscape

I love the Desert landscape and often find inspiration from spending time in nature. When I am seeking direction, a visit to the botanical gardens is always top on my list. Although custom artwork is my forte, I continue to explore and create original works on canvas.
