Mine is the world of the imagination. From the simple innocence of American everyday life to the mythological Greek nude, I explore what it means to be human. My imagery is idealistic, romantic and often nostalgic where existence is defined as much by delusion as reality.

With my formal art education focused primarily on the classics I continue to explore the world drawing and painting in traditional mediums and style. I paint what interest me and the old stories, myths and legends interest me. Therefore, I explore the human figure while relying often on mythology and history for inspiration. The work speaks for itself.

Feeling that I grew up too soon and missed something important in my childhood, I have started all over again.
