Artist Statement
My art is not just another drawing, it is a an art form that requires patience, skill and the ability to envision the entire rendering. I can look at the ground
and I see the shapes, light and shadows.
In my drawings, I focus on realism
and to put in as much detail as possible.
I want the viewer to see more than
they thought was there.
I have found that life is,
in the details.

My Studio
Professionally Framed Art
My Studio
My studio is not a large space, but it has everything I need within reach to create my art. I keep a large flat file for my paper and supplies.
My Medium
Professionally Framed Art
Professionally Framed Art
I use Prismacolor Color Pencils for creating my art. I find that the pencil gives me the ability to have control to put in the realism that I want in my art.

I will spend an extraordinary amount of time in creating my art. Presenting my art properly is key. I do not take short cuts with my framing. All my art is professionally framed, with UV glass, acid free matting, acid free backing and sealed with tyvec for a moisture seal. Finally all my art is wired and ready to hang.
