I create hand-painted portraits, landscapes, and mixed-media pieces focused on immortalizing memories and reflecting on them. My work spans painting, drawing, sculpture, Epoxy & UV Resin, wood, air & polymer clay, and digital illustration. What moves and inspires my work is the need to hold on to those important figures and places, and the need to make them last forever. Also, in my reflective work, I explore experiences and emotions that can impact our lives with the hope of inviting quiet reflections.I accept portrait and landscape commissions. For my reflective work, I can work on prints by special order.Recently I started a new art career as an educator from 6 to 16 years old. Future private classes are in development for kinds, teenagers, and adults
