About Me

Visit My WebsiteI am a live painter and life-long artist based in Denver. 2008 has opened many avenues for me including a wealth of live painting opportunities for bands, special events and for the media. I have found that i will paint just about anything as long as it makes sense to me: streets, bartops, walls, masks, recycled canvases, vintage handbags, particle board, vases, and bodies (although that last one is the most challenging) i love what i do. my ultimate goal with all my art is to bring it to as many people as i possibly can in this lifetime. if you like my work, fabulous. if you don't get it, please ask me about it. i paint eyes, orbs, poppies and mountains. i paint for myself, for others upon request and for no one in particular. i'm always looking for new bands to paint with, local to Denver, CO or otherwise. send me a note when you can Self Portrait 2008...You're Beautiful, Stay Beautiful Poppies on Mt.
