Biography

Creative art has always been a natural desire in my heart. As a young child growing up in Dayton, Ohio, I recieved lots of positive feedback and accolades for my young raw artistic talent.

After highschool, I kept up drawing as a favorite pastime. Eventually, I planned to go to college and pursue a career as a commercial artist or fashion illustrator. But for 15 years, I found myself doing various jobs around the city. Instead, I chose to set my art aside, in order to feed my family and pay the bills.

In December 2004, a month before my 33rd birthday, I decided that I could not wait any longer...I felt it was now time for me to live my dream...my passion. -Especially, since I had just been laid off from my job and my kids were now a little older and all in school. So, I decided to use the money I had saved up and invest a portion of it into starting my career as a fulltime professional artist.

My first painting was a portrait of my children titled, "Fours Company", the next, was a portrait of my son's titled, "Bubby and Me". Over a year, I painted and drew over 60 artworks including figures, abstracts, landscapes, and seascapes in spiritual, inspirational, or thought provoking subjects. Also, I created ad illustrations, logos and business cards for small- business clients, in Ohio. I specialize in painting family portraits and customizing pieces for clients.

Since January 2006, I have been showing and selling my original artwork on Ebay and online. Recently, I added my portfolio to the HelloDayton art gallery. The response has really been great! Knowing that my work is being appreciated and inspiring others makes me feel that I have accomplished what I was going after. -"...to uplift, inspire, and intrigue the mind, through my art".
