I am an artist by passion, an educator by trade, and an all-around nerd for all things gaming, science, and ghost tales! Like all great artists, I have 2 small assistants who are determined to stay outside with me. I've always been artistic and creative, starting with music and sketching in my childhood. Over the last few years, I picked up acrylic painting for myself and for my family, and later expanded into water colors. For now, I am only displaying and selling my acrylic paintings, however I will eventually begin adding other mediums as well. I am majorly self-taught, although I seek advice from other professionals as I develop my skills. Painting is more than a hobby for me; it's relaxing and expressive, and never turns out the way I assume it will. That is my favorite part of the paints and style I use; the beauty of the paintings are found not through my own ideas, but instead through the eyes of the beholder.
