Experience my colorful abstract
art in person

One of my favorite experiences at events is to watch people as they walk past my booth, glance at my work and then come to a full stop in front of a piece. I can see in their faces that something is happening, that it’s affecting them on a deep, emotional level. More than once, a person has said to me, “I just want to look at this” and “Is it alright if I just look at this?” The stillness they’re finding, the deep connection to their higher emotions they’re experiencing, is what I want for everyone. If you’re in the Atlanta area, please visit me and see my work in person. I’d love to meet you.
