About Me:

I believe art is an extension of ones soul. I'm attracted primarily by the evocative power of colors, shapes and symbols that have traveled through time that bring with them the power to heal. My artistic expression largely involves sparking memories while reducing, reusing, reclaiming and recycling discarded finds. I have an inability to throw away anything that can be converted into a piece of art. I have worked with many mediums, currently working with portrait photos on canvas painted with acrylic. The portraits bring life to photographic history, each piece with its own narrative telling a story of the person behind the image. It can represent a link to a family's past and provide a visual legacy for its future. I commission child portraits, wedding portraits, pets, and erotic portraits that hold a special meaning. All you have to do is provide the photos and and anything else you would like added to you collage and I can create a collage that is a one of a kind keepsake. I have even created a mosaic with a dish for a friend who broke her grandmother's beloved egg dish.
