Painting / Fine Art
Idaho Artists - Visual Art

In my art, I enjoy a myriad of different media, though my favorites are pastel, acrylic and oil. I portray what I feel is uplifting, invokes pleasing emotions, or gives food for thought. I depict a lot of animals in my artwork as well as human portraiture and expression. I like to paint what I know, so I often use my family as models.
