I am a full time fine arts students at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan NY. Born on Ft Bragg, NC, so I traveled alot as a kid while my Dad was in the military. It is not a question of what I do, but who I am... I began painting in 2006 and I just picked up a paintbrush and started painting with acrylics. I now do mostly acrylics and mixed media with some watercolors. Abstracts seem to be my forte. I have a great admiration for nudes and will one day master them. I generally work on only one or two paintings at a time and I choose my subjects by what delights and captures my imagination. I want my paintings to mean something different to each person who looks at them. Painting is Gods gift and my desire is to use it to bring joy to others. My ultimate satisfaction comes from continually inventing and improving myself.
