Profile:

I am a proficient artist specializing in illustration, life and figure painting. Concentrating on the human form, I am fluent with a range of mediums, including oil paint , watercolour, acrylic, drawing and digital media. As a traditionally centered artist, I seek opportunities to use my technical skill and creative ability. I work in the studio in oil, in the classroom as a teacher, and at the computer as a digital artist.
