Visual Art – Connecticut

My love for creating art has been around for my whole life. Starting with simple drawings of animals while I was young until high school where I participated in an AP art course. After that I was certain I would continue to paint for the rest of my life. I graduated from the Hartford Art School with a BFA in Illustration. While in college I was immersed into many different styles and mediums. I most often use acrylic paints in a style similar to egg tempera by molding the tones and then washing the colors on top. Watercolor and oil paints I use if I want a different look and feel. I like to paint a variety of different subject matters including landscapes, pet portraits, flowers and my favorite fantasy art.
