About
I’m a Christian artist with a focus on (Spiritual Expressions) through Art for the Glory of the Kingdom of God. I see myself as a “Gospel Painter ” with a vision. My greatest passion is art, it consumes me …I love to express myself through art.
I earned a B.A. in Psychology at Azusa Pacific Univ. Since then I studied art at various local colleges and private studio classes in and around Los Angeles, Ca. but I’m largely a self-taught artist.
I have exhibited in some small local group shows and had a solo show with Anointed Graphics Arts.
