Share This Artist

I am a self-taught local artist currently residing in Bentonville, AR. Although I have had a lifelong love of art, I began my own artistic journey in earnest roughly a decade ago, after serving in the U.S. Marine Corps, raising a family, and navigating a legal career. I currently spend most of my available time developing my artistic skills. My medium is oil and my style is traditional realism. While most of my pieces are classically rendered still life paintings, I also capture portraits and landscapes. My art has been shown in local shows, including the 2021 and 2022 Walton Art Center’s Regional Exhibition. In deep appreciation of the ability to create, I am on a constant and never-ending journey to hone my skills as a painter and master my craft.
