Artistic Journey

At an early age I was in awe of the wonderful Chiaroscuro paintings from the masters. I loved, and still do, the tension and drama between the dark and the light, I knew I wanted to paint this way.

For years I painted still life with great enthusiasm, but I felt I had more to give and explore. 

I ventured into landscapes, painting from memory and using the same techniques I had mastered with chiaroscuro.

Painting is my life passion and within that passion I have discovered that to appease my restless creativity I needed new ways of expression, from still life paintings to landscapes, portraits and abstracts. I am not sure what I will paint next, so my artistic journey continues.
