Artist Statement Welcome! I am an artist who believes the world can always use more inspiration, innocence, kindness and color! I strive for all of these in each one of my works of art.
I grew up in Massachusetts and am a huge Red Sox fan. I am now living in Southern California.
I grew up watching Disney Fairy Tale movies. My favorites were and still are; Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. I also loved reading about these characters in my fairy tale books as a kid.
Some of my favorite artists are Kay Neilson, Arthur Rackham, Edmund Dulac, Patience Brewster, Maxfield Parrish and James Christiansen (there are so many more!)
I started my art career as a graphic designer in the US Air Force, worked for 10 years as a graphic artist in the corporate world and now am doing my own "thing" creatively. I love working on my line of fairies, mermaids, goddesses and angels because every "peace" includes a part of my heart and soul. When I finish each one, I know it is what I am meant to be doing!
I am so happy that you visited today. I welcome your comments about my work. Come back again soon!
