About Me

My Background

Previous Exhibits and Awards:

For as long as I can remember I have been making art. I find inspiration as I travel and often paint while in the car and on location for fear the idea will be lost forever. These pieces often result in a finished painting or serve as a study for other paintings which are completed in the studio.

While I am primarily self-taught artist, I attended classes at the Hussian School of Art in Philadelphia, PA. My art education continues in various workshops with artists such as Claudia Rilling, Gage Opdenbrau, Jon Redmond, Martin Campos and Tracy Everly

My work can be found in many public and private collections. I am represented by Strodes Mill Gallery in West Chester, PA, Main Street Galleries in Kingston, PA, Maureen’s Gallery in Exton, PA and Ocean Galleries in Avalon, NJ and Stone Harbor, NJ
