Artist Bio
I am a fine artist working and living in Rhode Island. I think that nature provides us with a constant reminder to slow down in a modern world teeming with distractions. Luckily my imagination always looked outside for inspiration. Birds have become my most recent muse.

Materials and Techniques
Watercolor starts with a wet-on-wet process built up in careful layers until the bird’s personality emerges. Inspired by Japanese brushwork of Sumi-e ink paintings used “not simply to reproduce the appearance of the subject, but to capture its spirit”. All work is done using Arches Watercolor paper, natural hair brushes, and Japanese watercolors.
