I Love Painting Animals

I try to capture that spark of spirit that shines through the eyes. I love to paint wolves, cats, wildlife, marine life, fantasy art, and portraits. I have been painting since I was six years old when my mom taught me how to draw a horse head. Which I immediately made into a unicorn. Painting is all I have ever wanted to do. It is my dream to have my own gallery where I can share my work with as many people as possible. I am also available to paint custom portraits.
