When I'm painting, it's like I'm in a whole different world. I forget about time and reality. Art to me is like my drug; I'm addicted to it. I find myself doing it all the time; I never want to stop because I need it to live and without this drug my life would be boring and this is the only way I know how to express myself.

My addiction began at an early age when my mother put a big red crayon in my hand and set me down in front of a giant coloring book. Ever since that day I haven't been able to stop. Every time I see a paintbrush, I'm tempted to pick it up and paint the world.

Art is everything to me; it's my friend, my life, and most of all, my love. My passion for art and my love for animals is reflected in my paintings. Following a personality analysis of your pet, I will be ready to sit down with your pet's photo in one hand, my paintbrush in the other, and then begin to spill the paint.
