About Me

My Background

When I was in preschool, my favorite time of day was when I was allowed to draw and paint. As I got older, this love never faded and eventually I went to college to study art. I began my art career with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design.  After having worked several years as a graphic artist, I discovered my love for watercolors. I now devote most of my artistic talents to watercolor painting.

​

My Style

I have always been fascinated by the sunlight's power as it gently moves over objects. Combining this beautiful light with my strong knowledge of composition has become the backbone to my paintings.

My Inspiration

I grew up in West Virginia and spent summers in southern Italy with my family. Many of my resources for my paintings come from my travels. I have a studio presently in Reno, Nevada, as well as a studio in Italy for when I travel abroad.

My Services

I am available for commissioned artwork and exhibitions.
