PORTRAIT
Following the tradition of the great masters, all my portraits are created from live models at the Thursday Night Live in Plano, TX. Influenced by Lucian Freud, John Singer Sargent, I want to capture the personality of each model and allow them to
shine on my canvas.
GRACE'S STORY
After a successful career in corporate accounting, I channel my aesthetic feelings and creative urge onto canvas and paper. Rigorous examination of light and form replaces examining data and numbers. Expressing my feelings towards subjects with color and light replaces analysis of information with charts and formula.
People’s faces fascinate me. Nature and land inspire me. Symphonic poems by composers from around the world take me to mysterious places and times. Is it possible to create such emotional results with brush instead of baton? This is the challenge I am exploring with my art.
"What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?"
