My pieces consist of different styles. One is a deals with abstracts. The other paintings are done on reclaimed Tennessee wood, allowing for texture and looseness to be felt. Another involves loose brushstrokes giving an implied feel of whimsy. And lastly there are paintings with layer upon layer of paint, giving the feel of age and years of different activities going on in one painting, sort of like an old wall in an old house with layers of wallpaper and paint thrown upon it.

I have found such great satisfaction bringing all of these to life. They are all my “children” and I hope you enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed creating them.
