Oil Painting-
Landscapes
I was born in Miami, Florida in 1971. I have lived in New York, New Jersey, Southern California, and Texas until settling in Laguna Beach, California in 1996. My interest in art, mostly drawing and painting, began when I was 8 years old, and I have worked with numerous media, including oil, watercolor, pastel, colored pencil, and acrylic. Currently I work mostly with oil paints.In my oil paintings, I focus on capturing the essence of the natural world, with an emphasis on recreating the effects of light as the eye sees them. My work is mostly representational, but is not photorealism; instead it is a truer form of realism in which I recreate not what a camera sees but what the human eye, mind, and soul do. There are strong elements of abstraction in my art, representing the chaos inherent in nature that overlies a hidden order. During my artistic career I will continue to focus on developing innovative modern painting techniques, as well as refining traditional painting styles.
