Process

I start with original photography and then use acrylic paint to highlight and enhance various parts of the image. The brush strokes help to bring dimension on the surface, creating an original piece. Most are then custom framed with wood.

Inspiration

I always loved to paint.Photography came into my life while appraising homes.This led me wanting to capture nature to create wall art.In2012 I was disappointed with some photos I took.Not wanting to just toss them,I thought why not try to enhance some of the areas on the photo with acrylic paints.

Fun Facts

Depending on what colors I use, I can change the season or time of day of the same picture.
