I am a self-taught acrylic artist and have been painting since high school. Some of my paintings have been displayed in galleries in Napa, CA and Leapers Fork, TN and in multiple art shows and events. Since retirement, my love for acrylic painting has made me much more patient and allowed me to put more detail into each creation. I enjoy the challenge of the subjects I choose and to make them as life like as possible. I paint what moves me and what I want to share with the world. I'm looking forward to the challenges I will be putting on myself and exploring the depths of my talents to see where it takes me next.
