I received my masters in architecture from Norwich University and there learned how to balance and create space. I have always been an admirer of abstract art and began to paint sporadically in school. As time went on I knew that art was the only form of design I wanted to pursue. I began teaching art and really diving into the art world to find my personal creative niche. There I found 
the major players in the abstract expressionism world and was hooked by its raw beauty and creativity. I like large surfaces, which allow me to be freer with the paint and express an overall concept. I use a combination of media to develop figurative and non-figurative elements. I often work to create a big expansive gesture using the entire surface that I develop. Abstract art does not have an obligation of recognition. Art in general should be something ornamental, something that the owner can be a part of. It should speak to you in a way that is more than one sided. Abstract art allows the medium to free itself from human recognition. It’s meaning evolves and changes over time until it becomes something intimate.
