After extensive study with many prominent artists in my native Southern California, Mexico, and abroad, I have blended combinations of styles into my own unique form of expression. I have explored various art mediums over the past 40 years, and feel that each has its own special qualities to be used for various effects.

An “on location” painter, I image the world around me into abstract plein-air paintings. My passionate ability to convey feelings and emotions into abstract landscapes, flowers, and people have made me one of the more interesting and innovative artists in San Diego. My philosophy is that any art form should set off the viewer's feelings that have been hidden away. With the wind in my hair and the sun on my face, the artwork takes its own course – driven by the environment.

I was recently chosen as the new president of the Vista Art Foundation, whose mission is to promote art throughtout the community through creative art. Also, I recently won first place at the VAP juried show for my watercolor “Sabrina,” and I won “best of show” at COAL gallery for Still Life.
