I have an associates in art degree from Hillsborough College in fine arts and an associates in Science degree from Saint Petersburg College in graphic design. I have extensive studies at University of South Florida. I have a broad knowledge of painting from the Florida area and the vast landscapes, especially mangroves
Finding inspiration in the beauty of the Tampa area, particularly it's mangroves I have been painting over 40 years. My unique style involves applying paint and removing with cotton swabs and q-tips. I then paint additional layers to create and exaggerate images.This method results in an abstraction of nature. A map to an original idea
I am still learning and applying new ideas and finding inspiration in all aspects
I will continue to bring my best ideas to the canvas and invoke the art work you will want to have hanging on your walls
