Artist Statement:
I like to paint, it’s that simple. Based in Rockford Illinois, I am a self-taught artist and acrylic paint on canvas is my favorite medium. Painting is the biggest part of who I am and the place I run to where I can be my best self. When I’m painting, the rest of the world melts away. Worries and stresses disappear as I am immersed in the colors and process, sometimes painting in a frenzy. I lose track of time, eventually step back from the easel, let out a deep breath and I smile. By sharing my work, I invite you to see what happens when I go there.
