I work in various genres and mediums preferring oil paint and pastels for my figurative and portraiture work, most of which I mix myself. I work mainly by commission, exhibiting nationally and internationally in private, solo and group exhibitions. I began my creative exploration in the early years of my childhood, based in the U.S. Aside from First, Second, and Third place Jury also presented Merit awards and Honorable Mention awards.
