ARTIST PROFILE

My illustration styles range from realistic to cartoon, working in watercolor, pen & ink, computer hybrid, and acrylics. My talent and experience as a designer give me the ability to think like a marketer and create pieces that go beyond being just trendy. I believe that style and technique should be used to support and enhance the concept, not replace it. Your message shouldn't get lost beneath whatever trend happens to be "hot" at the moment.

By combining strategy with creativity to find innovative solutions, I produce images that deliver a message, make an emotional connection, and elicit a response.
