I am a Weaverville, North Carolina based artist and I have been obsessed with art ever since I could hold a crayon. Eager to learn, I started early in life practicing various techniques such as ceramics, sculpture and drawing/painting. As I excelled in drawing I focused my energy on honing my skills with pencils and watercolors. Recently I put my energies into a mixture of graphic design, digital art and physical traditional works in mixed medias.
My paintings are generally made with: acrylics, colored pencils, gouache and watercolors. My artwork is highly illustrative and is a play on realism with a dash of abstraction. I am inspired by the mysterious western North Carolina mountains and their beautiful nature. I also draw inspiration from ancient mythology, legends and stories, which I incorporate into my portraits and animal paintings. With great effort to always evolve my skills and style, I believe that art is about fluid movement, lightness and darkness.
