I am an artist who paints portraits, bird dogs, all forms of wild life, still lifes, and landscapes. I enjoy the outdoors and I enjoy painting en plein air. I prefer painting in oil but I occaisonally paint in watercolor. I am mostly a self taught artist but I have studied under some really amazing talented artists. I studied at the Art Students League in New York several times and I have taken workshops under Daniel Greene and David Leffel.
