I live just outside of Philadelphia, PA. I recently relocated here from upstate NY and abolutly love the city! I have been creating art in one form or another since I can remember and love all forms of it. I started out painting in acrylic and using oil pastel in my mixed media peices, but primarily enjoy painting in oil now a days.

I went to school for art my first two years of college in Upstate NY - but took a job in corporate sales just out of school. My art was set aside for about five years. A few years ago, I started to paint again and am now making it a focus and priority in my life. It is said that if you do what makes you happy and that you are passionate about - you cannot fail. This is my new mantra.

In order to refine and build my skills, I have made a commitment to paint everyday. I have been inspired by the daily painters found both here on eBay and on other online sites. To them, thank you for your wonderful ideas, open minds and inspiration.

In the past, my work was more whimsical and imaginative. My interests have since switched to subject matter that exists in my everyday life. I carry my camera with me everywhere and enjoy finding interesting compositions out of ordinary experiences.
