I enjoy capturing the whimsical character of an animal. I prefer letting my animals speak for themselves, setting them against simple, minimal backgrounds.​ ​My favorite aspect of capturing an animal's personality is getting the eyes just right.

As a child I had a love for animals of all types and I have maintained my affection for animals, which makes it fun and inspiring to create animal art.  

So many animals display fun and whimsy. I enjoy capturing these characteristics in many of my paintings.
