Artist's Statement

Since childhood I was always drawing, mostly self-taught. Studied some art in high school and that was when it really hit me that I might have some artistic skills. I think I have worked with every type of art medium and have studied under some great teachers. I always try to be enrolled in some type of workshop or class to try to keep my creativity and aspirations going. Drawing is a given but the hard part is planning out your piece as told to me by one of my instructors, Joe Cibere. It was in Joe's class that I learned about Nita Engle's style, one of my favorites, which I am currently using today. I love discovering new techniques and try to apply them to my art to achieve a piece where the observer would say "Wow, how did they do that?".

In 2011, I joined the Simi Valley Art Association and currently serve as Treasurer. I joined the association so I could get involved with other artists and the art community. That same year I entered their open juried show, and it being the first time that I have entered a show, and won 2nd-place in the watercolor category.
