I am an oil painter, who had my first experience with this medium at a very young age, around 8/9, and didn't explore it again until my college years. I love the richness and luminous quality of oils, and the history associated with it. Even my illustration work in previous years was completed in oil paints. I appreciate the versatility of the medium that I can explore from my rapid alla prima paintings, to my fine art paintings built up over time. Sketching / studies I use graphite, charcoal, and sometimes quick acrylic washes.

My Background
Teaching
I love teaching art and have for the past 15 years, currently in a private studio in Delaware. I enjoy the connection and growth I see in students through teaching, which is incredibly rewarding. I am currently working towards expanding my teaching online through tutorials, blog, and classes for adults-stay tuned!
