Artist Statement

As a passionate storyteller, I find boundless inspiration in life’s experiences, the beauty of ordinary moments, and the remarkable people found in everyday places. With over 25 years of professional painting experience, I am a self-taught artist whose skills have been honed through workshops with renowned portrait artists. My active participation in various local art groups has nourished my creativity, provided invaluable support from a community of fellow artists, and enabled me to earn multiple awards at both the local and regional levels. In my previous role as an art teacher at a local Catholic school, I embraced the opportunity to share my faith with students. This experience not only allowed me to inspire young minds but also pushed me to explore new techniques and broaden my artistic reach. Today, I am fully engaged in creating religious art, channeling my talents to evangelize and instill hope in others about the Beatific Vision. Read more
