My passion for art began when I won my first show at age seven. I am professionally trained in all areas of fine art, specializing in oil, with realism as my signature style. I paint in-studio as well as plein air technique.

I studied at duCret Center of Art, New Jersey’s oldest art institute. I trained with notable American artist Furman J. Finck and Daniel Schroll, and I continued my education at the Art Students League in New York City where I was able to study under Gustav Rehberger and David Leffell, known for classical still life and portrait painting. I was also able to study with acclaimed artist Joseph Dawley.

My regular studio is located at 303 Market Street, Roanoke (second floor). It is open to the public weekly, Wed-Fri, or by private showing by appointment Mon-Fri. I offer original works and accept commissions for portraits.
