I am a classically trained painter specializing in imaginative figurative art, outdoor painting and portraiture. In 2017 I completed the 3 year certificate at the Florence Academy of Art and did advanced study in portraiture at Charles Cecil Studios in Florence. I am commited to carrying on the tradtion of fine craftmanship and beauty - both in the subject and visual language used to capture it - as a guiding principle.
