I've been painting and drawing since I was in 2nd grade.  I remember the first drawing I ever did that people actually recognized I had a talent was in 2nd grade and I did a graphite drawing of a cricket.  It had every little detail from the eyes to the furry little hairs of each leg.  I went to college at the DAAP program of the University of Cincinnati.  It is a very highly recognized school for art, especially in the architecture and interior design program.  I went for fine arts. 

Right now, I own a photography company (called Fly on the Wall Photography, www.FOTWphotography.com) and I paint and draw on the side.  My favorite painting medium is oil painting.  I love doing portraiture of faces and animals.  I also love doing abstract art. 

Thanks so much for taking the time to look at my art.  I really appreciate it.
