Emily Grant commissioned me to paint this mural on her nursey wall for her soon to be daughters room! This was such a fun painting to paint, I loved every minute of it! Levi helped me design it in Photoshop prior to painting it directly on the wall. Which made it really easy for Emily decide that it was what she wanted before I painted it.
This Louisville Dentist office has kind of a different layout for their lobby space, they have a normal sitting area and then a separate room for a kids play area. Dr. Robert Lorenz really wanted this room to be for kids but to still have a professional feel to the art work. I was really happy how this room turned out.
Candi commissioned me to paint this in her bright orange stairway, it really opened up the space and made the space feel like you could really relax and breath in fresh air.
This was a mural painted in a nursery done to match the Pottery Barn Bedding. Peter Webb commissioned me to paint this for his pregnant wife and soon to be daughter. It was wonderful and really added a lot of warmth to the room.
Oh, I fell in love with a frog and he is a rainbow in my heart. Who will take him home and be showered in rainbows of this love? Every time you look at this painting you will be blessed with the abundance of love. Mr. Froggy face was my pick to represent the rainforest idea that was previously voted on in a Facebook poll.

So throughout the years I have a craving for doodling and it usually encompasses an eye. I love eyes, it is like looking into someones soul. I did this in pastel and acrylic paint. Shortly after the “Burst of Light” I did this piece not even realizing until a good friend of mine Jennifer Monk said that the, “burst of light,” is the reflection in the eye. Apparently my subconscious had that one figured out before me. 🙂 These two would be really cool in a hallway or something across from each other. It is fun to play with art in these pastel drawings I am really getting to play.
I was inspired by the moon one night, looking up at the sky and seeing the clouds pass over the moon, it was as if the clouds amplified the colors I was seeing. A burst of light. This piece was done with oil pastels drawn on Strathmore cold press professional paper. It measures 12″ x 18″.
The Crane Painting. It is painting number 4 of 4 in the Kung Fu Animal Series. Each of the four animals are represented in our style of Martial Arts. The original paintings can be seen at White Dragon Kung Fu located at 1714 Topaz Drive, Loveland, CO 80537 behind McGraff’s.
Out of the four, the reference for this piece had the least amount of detail. This created a unique opportunity for me to really play and create depth with my imagination and exaggerate what I could see.

This piece started with reference and ended with imagination. I started this painting back in 2008 and was painting it from a photo but didn’t finish it in time for a show I was doing so it got put on the back burner. I found it recently and just started having fun with it not using reference, but just seeing where the painting took me. I love the colors.
