My life as an artist...
I have always had a love for art even as a young child it just came naturally to me. I took my first art class at 12 years old and from the first day in class I knew this is what I wanted to be for the rest of my life.
In my 25 years of painting and creating, I have had the honor of meeting many talented and passionate artists with the same drive I have always found in myself. Knowing that I can create Beautiful Art for countless people to enjoy makes my life’s pursuit worthwhile.
At the age of 14 I sold my first painting, at 15 I started my own business painting windows at local stores for advertising and holidays. I began working for many well known large franchises such as Pizza Hut, Mac’s Hobbies and Crafts, and Kmart just to name a few. Starting my painting career at such a young age was very scary but exciting. My clients gave me the chance to prove myself and that was all the drive I needed to continue for as long as I have.
Since then, I have tried my hand in many different techniques, mediums and industries to open the door to more creative ways of expressing my art. I have received many awards and commendations for my work. I am so grateful for all the opportunities and abilities that I have been given as an artist, I get to use them as to continue a fulfilling and rewarding career making people happy and doing what I love!
