 As
a college student, I was awestruck by Michelangelo’s Sistine
Ceiling. Profoundly moved, I thought if art can be that
powerful, I must be a part of it. From that day it has been
my purpose to visually express this positive explosive
energy within me. My art career began with inspired ethereal
drawings.
Within months, these drawings received national and
international agency representation. As a result, my work
was licensed by multiple companies for 15 years, gracing
dozens of book and magazine covers, and purchased by
hundreds of private collections around the world.
Recently, I’ve been inspired by Picasso’s words, he paints
with “the mind of a genius and the freedom of a child.” My
Abstract “Music Paintings” have emerged. As I paint to
exhilarating songs, my intuitive freedom draws on my
classical fine art education to direct the explosive energy
that pours onto my canvas.
These new abstracts, which flow like automatic writing, have
been in two gallery shows within months of the first
completed painting.
I received my BFA in painting from Washington University in
St. Louis, Missouri, and my MFA from Lindenwood University
in St. Louis, Missouri and the University of South Florida
in Tampa.
St. Louis is my home again. I spent my formative years in
Brooksville and Tampa, Florida. This led to a life-changing
spiritual connection in Sedona, Arizona, followed by the
high energy of Los Angeles, returning home where my goal is
to electrify and energize the viewer’s spirit.
