Tributes

I’ve been told my portraits capture essence. I strive to capture that as well as the hidden biographical nuances by looking intuitively. Working to produce a lasting personal revelation yet still keeping the photo realistic quality in the image. Sometimes it’s like opening Pandora’s box. My artwork has been featured on ShowTime, TV and in film, shows at Universal Studio City Walk's Hard Rock Cafe in Studio City, the famous lounge Broadner's in Los Angeles and for private events.
