Fingerpainting in Kindergarten was the beginning of my passion for painting. I can still see myself mixing colors and having a great time! My father was an artist whom also inspired me. Years later, I received my MFA and have continued to follow my passion for creating artworks. In 2008, after receiving great feed back on paintings of dogs and cats, I painted for family and friends, I created BEST IN SHOW pet portraits. I continue to provide keepsake oil paintings to many satisfied customers.

Our Golden Retreiver (1993 - 2009)
and Basenji.

In the past few years, I donated pet portraits to six non-profit pet organizations. 100% percent of the proceeds from my paintings went to raise funds, mostly to those whom provide support for animals and to prevent pain and suffering. I hope make a diffence in these pets lives. 

My paintings are displayed at the CCA Gallery in Zionsville, Indiana
 and The Blue Door in Indianapolis.
