I have drawn with pencil for longer than I can remember.
I have been a lifelong artist. I've been drawing since I can remember. Art class has always been my favourite class. My style is realist, as I am obsessed with detail. I have always had a deep love of animals and nature. I find inspiration in all kinds of creatures, both domestic and wildlife, big, small, or in between. My favourite subjects are wildlife. I love drawing animals as it is a way of accessing the secrets of the natural world. I can see their souls through their eyes, which I try to capture in my paintings. Animals are as individual as humans, but for me they manifest a purer and more genuine spirit to the outside world than do human beings. I can love animals by painting them, leaving a legacy of their existence and hopefully bringing to the viewer the same joy that I experience painting them. I would like more people to be able to experience the connection that I have with animals. I wish to take this further to really convey that animals have their own personality and soul. Every portrait I do enriches my life, for the subject enters my heart. We are all connected. Connections are magical, providing an opportunity to nurture patience, compassion, love and caring. My art is motivated by my deep conviction that humans and animals share this beautiful earth as brothers and sisters. With my art, I’m hoping to awaken a sense of connection with the animals. Each animal is recognizable, soulful and spirited. Capturing the spirit and emotion of the animal or pet in a drawing is what my animal art are all about. I look into the eyes trying to figure the animals inner soul. For me the eyes tell it all. I want to touch people with my art. I have loved animals all of my life and find it very rewarding to highlight these creatures through my artwork.
I love painting. I work with passion and love. It is like a second nature to me. My painting is a kind of therapy for me. It lets me say things that i cannot express any other way and at the same time allows me to populate the space around me with artifacts of myself. The paintings I currently have on my website are mostly very recent, and I am learning something new with each one. I hope you will revisit my galleries often, and that you will enjoy seeing the work as it develops. If you would like to commission a portrait, or other painting, please feel free to contact me.
