I am an artist who has recently begun painting my own personal work after 17 years of full-time commercial Mural painting due to a strong desire to express myself outside of a client’s exacting parameters. This painting process is very freeing, and I'm excited to begin this journey.
I am primarily interested in the human figure. I use abstract mixed media techniques and combine them with realism in a multi layered technique which I endeavor to convey movement and spiritual energy. I enjoy using the different high gloss resin and matte finishes, pulling from skills learned through years working with clients on mural and faux finishing projects.
Through my paintings I wish to convey different aspects of humanity, such as the spiritual nature of human beings, their unique expressions of worship through the arts, and the glimpses of unity and diversity I see all around me. I believe the act of painting is a form of worshipful expression itself.

I have traveled as far as California and India to paint. In 2009, my work was displayed as part of the television show Extreme Home Makeover (Berks edition), and many mini makeovers in Berks County, Pennsylvania and the surrounding area. I was involved in many Designing for Hope projects involving murals and painted a backdrop for Quaker City string band for the 2016 Mummers Parade; I also have volunteered teaching art for a scouting program for girls since 1994.
