Thank you for visiting my site.
My art emerges from my love of observing life and the awareness of the spirit of nature with its complex diversity and abstractions. It is a genuine reaction to a specific stimuli created with a wide range of emotions, expressions, colors and media. Fleeting moments given greater permanence. I taught art K-12 for 31 years and adults using a variety of static art media that I incorporate in my art.
Most original Art is available to buy with or without the frame. Email me at [email protected] with comments, questions, and for requests for commissions. For commission work I use my personal interaction with my artistic subject, not others photographs. Some of my art is large. Shipping is costly and fees change. The art must be packed by the carrier to ensure its condition and insurance. If the shipping price at the time of your purchase is more or less than the art cost listed which includes shipping I will inform you . A separate price is listed with the art description for art that is picked up to avoid shipping. NFT may be come available but not at this time. Check back here for availability as NFT requests will not be responded to at this time.
