A realistic painter, I try to capture the individuality of my subject. Working in both oil and watercolor, using thoughtful brushstrokes, I strive to keep my colors clean. My style has been compared to the Romanticists.

My empathy with animals since childhood draws me to paint the beauty of large and small creatures, and the variety I see in my surroundings inspires me to portray the uniqueness of my subjects: people, animals and flowers.
