I strive to represent each painting with a balance of impressionism and abstraction. My travels have guided me to discover love of art and the artist in me. I draw inspiration from colors, textures and memories. I am based in Seattle , Washington and paint from nostalgic moments that develop on canvas, with swipes of bold brush strokes, and washes of vivid colors. I intuitively build each painting and strive to achieve a balance between the reality of the subject and my imagination. My goal is to convey a feeling that allows the viewer to make their own personal connection with my art.
