I am a portrait artist and teacher of portraiture. I like to tell the story of the person's life in the background and make the portrait a fine arts painting worthy of standing alone as the old masters did in some cases.
My customers love the warmth of my portraits and above all, they love that I maintain the subject's likeness throughout the process starting with the eyes which are the mirror of the soul; people say their loved ones came alive on canvas.
My goal is to become the greatest portrait artist that ever took a breath. I will not settle for second best.
I make portraits that cheer our living and honor our dead.
