Hello, and welcome!

     I have enjoyed art since I was a child, and I am always fascinated by artists who have become masters of their craft. I enjoy studying paintings and painting methods, and am in a constant endeavor to improve my skill. Although I enjoy different mediums, I am especially drawn to oil painting. I love painting landscapes and portraits. As you look at the paintings on this site, you will notice differences in the style of some of the work. Because I want to grow as an artist, I must go beyond that with which I am comfortable and try new things.  I hope you enjoy viewing my art. Please check back in the future to see the latest in my painting efforts.
