Welcome
I
have been a self taught artist for well over 30 years. Aside
from art classes offered during my high school years; I also
worked as a commercial artist for seven years. Creating logo
designs, advertisement and illistrations for area businesses.
I
enjoyed doing that at the time, but I LOVE what I do now. I
get to combine my love of Art with my love of bulldogs. What
more can you ask for!? Their gorgeous faces and eyes make for
a wonderful subject matter.
The
media's I have focused on in the last few years have been Oils,
Colored Pastel Pencil and Watercolor....although I always love
trying new things!
My
family has had bulldogs since 1994, and I have been exhibiting
since 1996. I am also a member and officer of the Western Michigan
Bulldog Club, Bulldog Club of America and Bulldog Club of America
Rescue Network. With that background, I guess it was pretty
obvious what my subject matter would be.
In
2002, I was honored to be asked to be the Artist for the Bulldog
Club of America's National Gallery, and have been doing it ever
since and will continue as long as they will have me....it is
a great honor!
Several
pieces on my website are of Champion Bulldogs from all over
the United States as well as puppies of my own. They are commissioned
pieces and are not for sale. Please contact me if you would
like to have one of your own done. I work from photographs;
typically several different photos to get the image just right.
Enjoy!
And thanks for visiting!
