Visual Art – Chicago

I am a small town kid..living in the city. I have been an artist since birth. I grew up with a bucket full of crayons and was surrounded by animals and country scapes. I moved to Chicago nearly 10 years ago..fell in love with the culture, people, buildings, energy! My artwork today is a reflection of my love of color, nature, texture, animals and pets. Im well known for my pet portraits in watercolor - but I also paint a variety of subjects depending on my mood that week. I participate in various art fairs, tattoo shop art events, community events, and animal welfare fundraisers throughout the year. I spent a week in art school before I figured out that half of those kids had no talent and were there because it was cool. Since then, I have been doing my own thing and enjoying every minute of it!
