"My work is primarily figurative, but not necessarily portraiture. I use the figure to provoke the viewer and narrate a story. The physical process of creating is an integral part of my work...
They are all pieces of the solution."
I am a local artist and graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting from Bemidji State University. I am active in exhibiting my work locally and nationally. I work in a variety of mediums, including acrylic paint, dress patterns, found objects, and whatever else I find. In addition to exhibiting, I accept a variety of commissions. The commissioned works have proven to be an exciting challenge and a way to explore new subject matter.
