I’m an acrylic and oil painter who creates art that is meant to generate a connection between the viewer and the work, and also encourages one to view the world from an altered perspective. My paintings are expressive and often surreal, with bold colors, flowing lines, and subjects that have an other worldly, emotional appeal. I graduated from EWU in 1998 with a BA in Education and a minor in art, but I’m mainly self-taught. I’ve been painting consistently for twenty two years and have been showing my work around Spokane since 2007.
