Artist’s Statement
I am originally from Paducah, Kentucky, but have lived in Lafayette for many years. I have many interests when it comes to creating art. I love to paint portraits, murals, furniture, and any subject that might interest me at any given moment. It would be difficult to pick a favorite medium as I love them all whether its watercolor, pastel, acrylic, graphite, oils, or sculpture. As long as I can play with color and image I am where I want to be. I am inspired by a look in someone’s eye, the delicacy of a flower, the colors of a piece of yarn, a photograph or the way a shadow might play across an object.
My interests, talents, and aspirations include the visioning, creation, and execution of works of art.
My work has appeared on a wide range of products varying from giant billboards, furniture, brochures, murals (indoor and outdoor), walls and ceilings, and two-dimensional and three-dimensional gallery presentations.
I have been fortunate enough to have been awarded with many different awards over the years in a variety of art competitions. I will continue to nourish my spirit by using my gift to create wonderful art and share it with others.
