My Style
Bold Color Mosaics
I am a mixed‑media artist who turns lived experience into design. In my collage works, I build rich tapestries from ticket stubs, wristbands, receipts, and other ephemera, then paint boldly over them—portraits, iconic imagery, or product still lifes—letting barcodes, dates, and typography breathe through translucent layers. The result is a clean, modern fusion of drawing, glazing, and graphic design that nods to Pop Art while remaining diaristic and personal: artifacts of nights out, purchases made, and moments that still hum.
Parallel to this, I paint cityscapes and landscapes distill place into crisp geometry and rhythmic pattern. Architecture is rendered with hard‑edge clarity and stacked color blocks, while water and sky break into interlocking, mosaic‑like marks that pulse with light and motion. Across all three modes, my voice is consistent: I archive memory, celebrate culture, and choreograph pattern and transparency into images that are at once recognizable and reimagined—icons of everyday life seen through an artist’s eye and a painter’s hand.
“Music & Concert”
Iconic Rock images on classic tickets
This artwork is a mixed‑media collage built from authentic concert tickets, wristbands, and venue stubs, arranged into a dense, archival tapestry. Over this lived-in backdrop, a bold hand-painted centerpiece cuts through with saturated color, transparent glazes, and energetic brushwork. The painted forms let barcodes, dates, and typography glow from beneath, fusing graphic design with painterly motion.
The piece celebrates the culture of live music and the memories it creates. Each ticket is a time capsule; together they form a collective soundtrack, while the soaring spaceship and blast of light suggest lift‑off, volume, and the electric rush of a show. It’s both poster and portrait: a tribute to classic rock mythology and a personal chronicle of nights that still echo.
Richmond and Urban architecture
One Artistic Eye Observes Buildings
A contemporary landscape/cityscape style that blends stylized realism with geometric abstraction. Architecture and terrain are distilled into crisp, hard‑edge shapes and stacked color blocks, giving familiar views a clean, graphic clarity. Instead of photographic detail, the work emphasizes design, rhythm, and light, using flattened perspective and high‑contrast palettes to create bold, modern compositions.
Signature to this approach is the patterned “mosaic” treatment of water and sky—interlocking, cell‑like marks that ripple across the surface to suggest motion and atmosphere. In the city scene, this tessellation energizes the river; in the reference landscape, it sweeps through the cloud formations and reflections, unifying earth and sky. The result is part urban or natural portrait, part abstract pattern study—dynamic, recognizable, and distinctly contemporary.
Bourbon Series
where art meets leisure
A mixed‑media still life that merges product portraiture with collage. The bottle is hand‑painted in translucent layers so the ground—actual receipts, stamps, and store typography—remains visible, turning barcodes, prices, and dates into texture and tone. The result feels both graphic and painterly: crisp outlines and label lettering sit over soft glazes and reflections.
Conceptually it nods to Pop Art and contemporary collage. Everyday ephemera documents the act of purchase, while the painted object elevates a common commodity into an icon. The interplay of realism and transparency creates a palimpsest of consumer culture—part advertisement, part diary page—clean, modern, and boldly personal.

Your Biggest Moments Captured, Without Interruption
Let’s face it – a special event is something we look back on for years to come, remembering the good times we’ve had and the wonderful people we’ve shared our lives with. Capturing that event is just as important as any other detail you need to work out. My photography will help you capture the magic of the moment, whether it’s a graduation, wedding, anniversary, baptism or similar special moment in your life.
Because I’ve worked with so many clients in so many different environments, you’ll barely notice I’m there – the occasional touch to fix a hem or request to turn slightly is all you’ll notice. This is just one way I capture the magic.
