I received my BA from Ohio University. I was lucky enough to dive into my studio art classes with some of the best artists around (OK, I may be a little biased but really; best artists, PERIOD). The faculty at OU thrived on making their mini artists question, critique, lose their mind, & question their art some more. Until they felt that they may truly die from lack of conceptual ideas, much less the manifestation of these ‘ideas’. I graduated in 2011, with a handful of paintings that were good enough to throw on a website. I’ve spent my time since college focusing less on conceptual ideas & more on the materials in hand. While discovering what my materials can do for me, I find myself never being able to fight the urge to add more color & texture. I’ve given up on fighting this urge and now embrace it. I continue to find new ways to manipulate the paint & manifest my ideas. I encourage you to take notice to the variation in color, value, texture & movement in my art. These paintings are simply abstractions of everyday life, feelings & concerns. They’re inspired by my surroundings & are focused far more on the materials than the message.

Pebbles & Pathways Series at High Rd. Gallery

Hope everyone had a great weekend! 

I want to send a special HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my 14 year old nephew, Mitchel; and to my 8 year old niece, Alexis. It takes a special set of siblings to be born on the same day and still enjoy each other so much, well when they're not 
arguing! ;)

Please take the time to 'LIKE' me on FACEBOOK. Thanks!

Here's the latest sneak peak of my paintings that are showing the ABX Studio, at High Road Gallery in Worthington, Ohio. Make sure to make it out while the show is up: Sept. 26th- Oct. 20th. 

Ignore the Masking tape. :) Pebbles & Pathways II.
Peace, Love and ART!

Don't forget to book a painting lesson with Colors & Bottles, great for a date night, girls night out, bring your own booze, or go to a session at your favorite restaurant. You can book a private event too! Colors & Bottles is available in 11 different cities nationwide, and 3 right here in OHIO! :)
