About the Artist

I am a full-time artist in Tucson, Az. Since I can remember, I have thought of myself as an artist. Whatever the medium, I have dabbled in it. Whatever supplies that are required, I own them. Learning and growing, as an artist, is what keeps me coming back to the studio every day. I specialize in encaustic, aka. beeswax painting, which involves adding pigments to beeswax. The medium is then applied to a porous surface in liquid form and then fused with a torch in many layers. It is also known as "Painting With Fire". I also enjoy working with multiple mediums and subjects, but landscapes and florals in encaustic or oils are my favorites. Being diverse in the creative process prevents stagnation, allowing me to continue to grow and evolve as an artist. Nature has always been my muse. My style is simplistic and allows the viewers' own creative thoughts or memories to interact with the paintings that make them smile.
