Artist’s Statement
I come from
a long line of artists and cannot remember a time when I was not clutching
a paintbrush or pencil within my hand so that I might share with others
how I see the world around me. In fact, I can not imagine my life without
art; it would be like living a life without laughter.
Art is my passion
and another form of self expression. Specializing in Trompe l’Oeil
and Murals enables me to share my talent with clients so that they too
can communicate their feelings through art. A well placed Trompe l’Oeil
or Mural can create more than just a design statement; it can create
a sense of separation in larger rooms and open floor plans, or provide
the feeling of more light and space. My professionalism and attention
to detail enables me to create a unique piece that meets my clients'
needs both artistically and architecturally. I am drawn to the flexibility
of this art form, and thrive on the realistic nature of the work.
My
goal is not to merely alter a client’s decor, but to provide them
with a high quality piece of fine art.
I am proficient
in many mediums. I predominantly use professional grade acrylics for
their vibrant color pallet, low odor, and quick drying time. My versatility
allows me to paint on nearly any interior or exterior surface, and my
Movable Murals provide even more design flexibility for my clients.
Having been
educated in the Fine Arts in England, UK, my art is heavily influenced
by the European Masters. My extensive travels over the years allows
me to explore other cultures approach to art, which is extremely beneficial
to my work, as I am constantly striving to employ new methods and innovative
ideas. Keeping up to date on both art and home fashion trends is important
to me, as I wish to offer my clients the highest quality of design,
coupled with a fresh approach to the long tradition of Mural and Trompe
L’Oeil painting.
