I've been painting intermittently for about 20 years. Art and nature have always been extremely important in my life. Previously, I mostly used acrylic on canvas, but have recently started experimenting with watercolors and other mediums. I love the feeling of starting a painting with an idea in mind and watching its evolution. I often surprise myself with the results. I am open to all forms of art and creativity, and I enjoy learning new skills and techniques.

Snail and Grasshopper
I just finished this painting last week... I feel like this photo does not do it justice, but it gives the idea. I found this photograph in a National Geographic Magazine from 2007 and could not resist painting it. I love how both creatures are just chilling out, like they're having a deep conversation on the leaves.
More than one person has said that this piece reminds them of an illustration from a children's book, which I think is really cool.
