ARTIST STATEMENT

Like most artists, my work reflects my life experiences. I love bright colors and tropical locations. I paint because I feel excited when watercolors mix on paper and create dynamic effects. I love trying to capture the sentimental aspects of life in my art. I have lived in Florida for many winters and loved capturing the magic of the Florida Keys in my photography and art. I love the beauty of the coast in southern New Jersey. I enjoy creating art with different mediums -- acrylic paints, watercolor, pastels, mixed media, graphite, charcoal, pen and ink, ceramics, glass, and mosaics. I also love digital art and graphic design. I am grateful for my education, my outstanding professors, and everyone who has supported me.
