With my portraits I endeavor to produce something honest and true of the person I'm painting. I want the portrait to be alive with the energy and essence of the subject.

This comes about by understanding the subject as deeply as possible, whether that be during in-person sittings, over the phone, or through stories and memories.

The entire process is a collaborative one between painter and subject that starts with a vision and builds and morphs in response to our interactions until a finished portrait comes through.
