Location: United States

I live in Saint Louis Missouri. I started making art as a child and never stopped. I have studied art in school but never obtained a degree. Employment takes time away from being able to work on art to the extent that I would like, but I remain persistent in the time that I do have.


I work in several abstract styles as well as some which are more expressionism and surrealism based. 

I use a variety of medium, including- watercolor paints, collage, colored pencils, acrylic paints, computer-based work and crayons.

Crayon Drawings

I began working with regular crayons somewhere around 1985, just after high school. I have used them for my completely abstract color work as well as the expressionistic fauvist landscapes which I sometimes call the dreaming tree series.

Aqua Sun “Aqua Sun”

Crayola Crayons on drawing paper. Bright and beautiful colors swirling like captured music. This series of abstracts has been called, by some, psychedelic blobs. I like to think of them as drawing inspiration from abstract expressionism and the feeling of music but also as a unique thing in their own right. They are something that I feel, I don't think I can explain it.
