Artist's Statement
I consider myself a realist painter with a passion for painting children, families and pets in natural settings, or engaged in activity. I work solely in oil on portrait-grade canvas from non-copyrighted photographs. Many of my works are commissioned pieces. I obtain great satisfaction in capturing both the likeness and personality of my subjects, while creating a finished product that is an attractive painting in its own right. Vacation photos with stunning scenery often provide the perfect subject matter. I find it helpful to work from multiple images, so I can better replicate accurate skin tones, hair color etc. I will work with the clients personality, whenever possible, to achieve a finished product that meets everyone’s satisfaction.
