With over 25 years of experience, I am a dedicated traditional fine arts painter whose work is heavily influenced by urban aesthetics, graphic novel styles, and the vibrant energy of pop art. Growing up in a family of traditional artists and art educators, I was immersed in the world of art from a young age, fostering a deep passion for creative expression that has only grown over the decades.

 

Utilizing both oil and acrylic mediums, my commitment to my art extends beyond the canvas. I build and stretch my own canvases, ensuring that every piece I create is a true labor of love from start to finish. My passion for the tactile and expressive qualities of oil and acrylic paint is evident in the bold colors and dynamic compositions that define my work.

 

As a strong advocate for traditional painting techniques, I am deeply committed to supporting and promoting the arts and culture scene in the South Bend, Indiana region. My work not only reflects my personal artistic journey but also my dedication to preserving and advancing the rich traditions of fine art in the community.
