About the Artist
I have been an artist
since I was old enough to pick up a crayon. Creating fine art and doing graphic
design have been my lifelong passion, as well as my profession for over 30
years. I believe that true art and good graphic design do not follow trends or
fashions but rather use images to communicate central messages in an immediate
and memorable way.
In my fine art I work primarily in pen & ink with watercolor, which gives an exceptional combination of warmth and detail. I don't believe that fine art and commercial graphics are mutually exclusive; rather, I've found that combining the two can often result in extraordinarily powerful graphics that make a business stand out from its competitors.
In my commercial graphic designs I work with individuals and businesses to create visuals that convey an effective message, represent the personality of the businesses, and provide for them a unique identity. I combine my skills, experience, and sense of aesthetics to create for each client an identity and marketing collateral that support his or her business's vision and character. I believe strongly that a crucial part of creating effective business graphics is listening to my client's wants and needs, and collaborating to build trust and a positive working relationship.
