My work may be realistic, stylized, or abstract and may depict objects, people, nature, or events. As a sketch artist I create likenesses of subjects using pencil, charcoal, paints, pastels, paper cuttings or the computer.

As a sculptors I design in three-dimensions, either by molding and joining materials such as clay, glass, wire, plastic, fabric, or metal or by cutting and carving forms from a block of plaster, wood, or stone. Some sculptors combine various materials to create mixed-media installations. All the pictures you see are available to be bought as prints of any size, feel free to contact me to do special orders.
As a paper cutter there are different ways to create your designs. One uses black paper and proceedes to cut it with or with out a template to follow. You can use either scissors, or a exacto knife, most of my paper cuttings are done with the scissors, or even a form of taring.
Some of the work on my paper cuttings page was first created on the computer and used as a template to cut out the design.

So most of any of my drawings or portraits I may use them and then turn them into a paper cutting. I have sold a few of my celebrity portrait paper cuttings, such as Angelina Jolie, Keanu Reeves and Bob Marley. The portraits of the celebrities are created in illustrator a computer program in vector based drawing. I try to find pictures of the stars that describe different sides of the actor and not everyone would have seen. I will do any picture of any person as long as it is a clear shot. All of my work is for sale and I can be commissioned to do any type of art work or design you need. I will do portraits as a print or as a paper cutting.

How do you purchase a picture?

I do not have an order form included in this web site since some of the work in the Gallery pages is one of a kind and may have been already purchased. Please contact me to discuss availability. Purchases can be made by Pay Pal, or check, and I can also work out a "lay away" system at no additional charge. With the help of my digital camera, I can even email pictures of frames to show you various choices available!
