Artist Statement

I believe I have always been an artist. As a child I was always singing and drawing or painting. I try to find beauty everywhere I look. I examine colors, patterns, and shapes in the world around me. I am most fond of painting portraits. I don’t want to paint beautiful people, rather I desire to paint people beautifully.
