While growing up, my father often took us to places where we were surrounded by nature. I found a love and respect for nature, which has inspired me to try to capture all the elements of nature in my paintings. I observed layers, colors, transparencies and textures, which I try to incorporate into my paintings (oils, acrylic, and watercolors), and in my graphic design projects.
