Gender Female

Occupation Professional Oil Painter - Fine Art
Location FL, United States
Introduction A little about my work: I love bold, striking color! I admit it, I'm obsessed! I love vibrant, pure colors and expressive brushstrokes, which is evident in almost everything I paint. Although I do enjoy painting calm pieces too. ;) I specialize in oil paintings of flowers, landscapes, still-life, portraits, and works incorporating literature (especially Tolkien)! I have several series of paintings, all of which can be viewed by visiting my Facebook page (see below). I am available for commissioned paintings and produce pen & ink drawings, as well as watercolor. Prints/Reproductions are available in select works and in specific sizes. I can also special-order prints of originals that you like, but aren't already listed in print format. A print is a great alternative to an original if you are on a tight budget. Want to know more?
