about the artist
Hello! I'm so happy you're here. Thank you for taking the time to explore my work.
Being a self-taught artist I have dedicated years to nurturing the many depths of my artistic curiosity. My work draws inspiration from the Old Masters of the 16th-18th century painters, doll makers, the Brothers Grimm fairy tales and the psychological insights and layers of natural corrosion.
By merging together my own life experiences and artistic growth, I create unique works that will call to your spirit with it's dark gothic romance, lost love and self-discovery.

Frames & Art Care
ABOUT FRAMES : When it's time to frame completed work, vintage and distressed frames are often used, that are discovered while visiting antique shops and local markets. The interplay between the frame and the painting offer a continual narrative, not only to explore the art, but to also see the story embedded in the frame. Each scratch, wear, and imperfection in a vintage frame tells its own tale. This thoughtful combination elevates the overall aesthetic, allowing for a harmonious blend that captivates, and inspires an old world charm that transports viewers to another time.
HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR ART : It's exciting to bring home your new artwork and find it's forever place on the wall, however, to prevent canvas warp and color fade, it's strongly recommended to avoid hanging your artwork in an area where there are constant fluctuations of temperature change, humidity, and direct sunlight. Living Rooms, Hallways and Bedrooms are great choices. Damaging environments would be areas such as, Bathrooms, Laundry Rooms, Kitchens and damp Basements. Although all paintings are varnished for protection, it helps to avoid these certain environments so your art remains healthy for years to come. Periodic dusting is required with a very soft, large cosmetic brush. Never vacuum the artwork, nor use paper towel, or wet cloth to dust.
