Imagined Groups
By using both a realistic and a loose, almost impressionistic style of painting combined, I render subjects in bold colors and dramatic lighting. My subjects include people interacting individually and in groups to address topics I find culturally significant: human emotion, communication, self determination, and cultural celebration events.
All pieces are available for sale unless noted otherwise. See the Purchase page more information
Chaos at the Head Table
51 x 28 • Oil on Canvas, Metal
Price: $3,000
This idea came out of my own surprise of witnessing someone close suddenly dealing with health issues. We all have those moments, both good and bad, that can be pivotal moments, like it or not. The viewer is situated behind the couple and witnessing first hand.
The Book Club
48 x 48 • Oil on Canvas
Price: NFS
Family gatherings are festive times. I wanted to try to make the viewer appear to be entering and joining in with the fun of family events. The light is radiating from the center outward to all participants.

The Women of Canvas
42 x 42 | Oil on Canvas
Price: $4,000
When doing research, I discovered that many women became famous because they were painted. I tried to represent them together in the style that made them well known. I also gave them wine and a good time was had by all.
