I have always been an artist, even when I didn’t fully understand what that meant. Seeing things differently is a gift. I’m taking this new opportunity I have to venture back into art, digitally. I’ve come to discover again that creating art is a joy. My goal with everything I create is to always make people stop and look a little longer, wonder and hopefully experience something emotionally pleasant. My intention is to evolve in the area of children’s picture books, although I’m always open to various projects and areas. My favorite aspects of creating art are working with color and depth. I am also particularly fond of nature related themes.

As a designer I am always conscious of how aspects of a creative work look and function in relation to one another. Whether it be a graphic image, an interior space, or anything designed for that matter, my eye is often drawn immediately to the areas that could be made better. When something is well designed a sense of peace and comfort usually results, not only for the designer but for the recipients as well. It is for these reasons that I am always looking forward to new and interesting design projects.
