Hello, and welcome!

2025 will be my 50th trip around the sun. I'm celebrating with an online exhibition.

My 50 at 50 Exhibition will kick off on January 13th, 2025 and run for 365 days.

About Me
-
I'm an artist who now calls Madison County, North Carolina home.
-
I hate cooking, slow drivers, TV, and large crowds.
-
I love traveling the world on the cheap, gardening, reading literary classics, DIY home improvement projects, and petting all the dogs.
About My Art
-
I paint what I love, and I love landscapes and animals.
-
I'd describe my dog portraits "dogs doing dog stuff." I use a vibrant palette of watercolors that aims to capture your pup's personality and attitude.
-
I'd describe my other work as an homage to the flora and fauna that make me happy; I'm inspired by my time outdoors in the Lowcountry and the Blue Ridge mountains.

My Art's Purpose
-
I envision the purpose behind my art as connecting people to animals and encouraging more genuineness, empathy, kindness, and loyalty in people.
-
I believe animals embody qualities that surpass our own, serving as beacons of empathy, loyalty, and wisdom. I'd like to remind people that they could learn a lot from dogs.
-
With each canine piece, I celebrate the enduring bond between man and his best friend. Dogs' lives are entirely too short - they should be celebrated! See what people are saying about my work, or leave a of your own
-
My art is on a mission - to help all dogs find a loving home. I donate 10% of sales made at special events to selected animal rescues. I donate gift certificates for commissioned original dog portraits to animal rescue groups to use in their annual fundraiser auctions.
