I live in San Francisco, California. My chosen media are oil paints. My typical subject is the family pet. I am in constant awe at how much joy I have received from my two dogs over the years. I completely understand the deep connection that we feel towards our family pets, and why we want to capture them in a moment in time to bring us years of memories. Most of my early paintings featured my dogs, Tictac and Chicklet, whom I have found a continuous inspiration. I would like to memorialize this relationship for pet owners with a portrait of their animal. I am committed to immortalizing our four-legged family members in a tradition with a long-lasting history. I use professional-grade Winsor Newton paints, as well as other archival mediums that will keep your painting in great condition for a lifetime. Ranging from representational to surreal, my paintings are done in a classical style with a touch of modern whimsy.
