I am an artist of paint, clay, and mix media, an author, poet, animal trainer, and gardener. I am currently learning guitar and Japanese, and I am fascinated by dreams, the mind, music, and nature. I love combining beauty and bizarre concepts in my art and hope to take that to whole new level in future projects.
I aspire to release a free digital book each month; I am currently working on kids books, poetry, and much more! Please keep an eye out for new releases!
You can read my Short Stories and Poetry Here!
You can find my children’s books here!

Sonya and Sophia are red fox kits brought to life through mix-media. You can find this picture in my animal-themed poetry book, “GRATITUDE”.
Twitter Art Exhibit-Australia-2018. These manga-style characters came to life in ink and were painted with water color on mix media paper.
“Subarashii” means “splendid” or “wonderful” in Japanese. This anime-style boy was painted in acrylic on canvas board. At first this acrylic piece was going to be in full color, but the “watermelon” effect was far too enchanting.
Anime-inspired boys. This piece was created on water color board with acrylic paint. ”Hohoemi” means ”to smile” in japanese.
Dear Apache Tear was the result of a message from a dream and a gemstone; inspiring the image of this gentle desert, and wise crystal skull.
”So Sweet” was a portrait request for two beautiful cats. It is an acrylic piece.
A portrait of my adorable rosey Bourke parakeet, Gypsy. This acrylic painting appears in my poetry book, “GRATITUDE”.
Painted in acrylic, the ”Jungle Ace”; a Mitred conure, rules his awesome world.

Here is my version of the Easter Bunny. She was painted in acrylic on stretched canvas.
All bits and pieces of this work came from dreams I had. If there’s anything I’d hope you can take from this vision, it would be the brilliance that is within us all. Empress Brilliant was captured in purely water color.
I have to say, I really struggled with Melody’s lighting, but here she is. This enlightend owl holds many wise secrets that she is ready to share with the world.
A black and white watercolor dedicated to a time we trusted birds with our lives.
This water color image depicts both the beauty and harshness of change. This painting wasn’t really about birds, but rather a spirit that can’t stop coming back.
“The Curse of His Creativity” is a piece in honor of the musical artists that work so hard to get their life-reviving masterpieces to us. This acrylic painting was inspired by the wacky, but beautiful gothicness of J-Rock style music. I hope that “The Curse of His Creativity” really resonates with other artists. I know I’m not the only one that can’t sleep at night due to a good idea!
This is another installment of the “warbirds” series. It is entirely black watercolor. This particular piece is a tribute to the famous Cher Ami and the men whose lives she saved.
Here is a J-rock inspired vampire. He was painted in acrylic on canvas board.
“Guitar Boy” was painted in acrylic on stretched canvas. He rocks out on a pink electric guitar and lives in the sound!
“Gen Sings” is a sketch that I did with black colored pencil on bristol board. I wanted to capture the power and intensity of a rock artist making his point.
