Artist Statement
My work focuses on capturing emotion and empathy on the canvas. I want the viewer to feel like they are present with the subject and relate to what is being expressed even though they may not share the same experience. I seek a balance between the perfect detail without losing the human element.
Artistically I am influenced by the works of classic painters such as John Singer Sargent, Robert Henri, and Norman Rockwell. Shawn Barber, Erin Cone, Burton Silverman, Heather Horton and David Kassan are Contemporary Artists that I look to for inspiration today.
