Arts: Visual Arts: Painting: Painters: Portraits  (323)

Profile

I was formally educated in the biological sciences. Making countless studies of microscopic and macroscopic forms in nature, I honed my skills for careful observation and accurate drawing.

Inspired by the Renaissance, I never forgot my lifelong love of art, experimenting with a wide variety of media. However, it was not until 1996, with the loss of my dear mother, that I came to professionally cultivate my God-given talents for creating life-affirming works of art.

I learned the nature of painting media from manufacturers' data and my experimentation; and I learned the art of line, form, space, color, and composition by studying the Old Masters, as they had studied the works of those who came before.

It is my pleasure and privilege to create works that help others "remember, cherish, honor".
