Artists Statement:
I enjoy creating bold artwork that moves people. Most of the artwork I create I have seen in a dream, or it is something that enthralls me from life or nature. I really pour my energy, my feelings and a bit of myself into every piece I create, to hopefully leave a fingerprint of myself in my work and maybe on a person or two. Because of this I believe my artwork holds a type of life and that this creates a special, personal experience between my viewers it. I like to keep it simple and heartfelt; I create what I love, color, boldness and captivating scenes that I hope captivate others as well. |

| A style of painting which depicts subject matter (form, color, space) as it appears in actuality or ordinary visual experience without distortion or stylization. In a general sense, refers to objective representation. More specifically, a nineteenth century movement, especially in France, that rejected idealized academic styles in favor of everyday subjects. Daumier, Millet, and Courbet were realists. |
