I enjoyed watching my grandfather paint as a young child and he fostered a lifelong interest in art. The practicality of raising a family was priority for many years but in 2004 I could no longer ignore the yearning so began the present journey. After working in various mediums I focused on oil and acrylic using classical techniques in style of contemporary realism.
