  WELCOME DOG LOVERS (and cat lovers too)!!!
 
   As a native of Upstate New York I had always been surrounded by the most beautiful and colorful elements of animals in nature. At a very young age my parents taught me how the true loyalty and compassion of the human spirit may only be surpassed by that of our animal companions. It wasn't unusual for our loving home to be filled with the unique sounds of pets from "Carmela" the Guinea Pig ,to "Kramer" the cockatiel. Not surprisingly it was our K-9 counterparts that truly made our house a home! As I grew older my love for animals was only surpassed by a passion for creativity through art. Now, after years of being submerged in "Corporate America" I am going back to what I love...painting. My art is much more then simply a replication of a picture... these paintings capture the spirit of your pet through the use of pure color, composition and light.

 

*Also available: paintings of children, cats, birds or whatever your menagerie consists of!
