FINE ART

expressing poetry by paint and pen

 A painting is a poem without words.
Poetry is painting that speaks.

Artist Statement


My art is often a fusion of painting and poetry.  Sometimes the poem inspires the painting and other times the painting inspires the poem. When these come together I find a dynamic sweet spot in my creative expression. 
I see the equine form as pure poetry written in living, breathing flesh. 
I find nothing more beautiful or endlessly inspirational, and this is why so many of my paintings and poems find themselves with horses running through them.
