Original artwork description:

I have loved art since I was a child and I am inspired by what I see around me. My works express the beauty and peacefulness of people doing everyday things. In a sense these paintings have become a series. In this painting, "New Day.3 (Mother and Child)," the mother is optimistic that she has what she needs to take care of her family as she begins a new day.

As an artist, as I said already, what I see around me motivates me to capture moments in time. I am also passionate about exploring color. I want the colors that I use in my paintings to help express the overall mood. My main medium is acrylic paint. Using acrylic's gives me the affect that I want in my work since it dries fast and I can add layer upon layer quickly. The layers build and become the wonderful colors and also the texture that I am aiming for. I believe that everyone should have original art in their home. When you view my works it is my desire that you will be inspired by the scenes and uplifted by the content.
