I use uninhibited, energetic brush strokes and knife marks to create paintings with thick icing-like textures!  I have shown  in many venues in Catawba County including a solo show at the Hickory Museum of Art.  Visit my website to see my work, order a custom painting and view videos of "live" painting performances.  My work is currently on display at Backstreets Bar and Grill, Copperbean Coffee and Market on Main.
