I am a Multidisciplinary Artist with over 20 years as an Art Specialist and Yoga Instructor. I am passionate about teaching. I believe everyone can be creative.

My Grandmother took me to see the 'Starving Artist show' in downtown San Antonio when I was 10 years old and I knew Right away that art was what I wanted to do forever. Any way you look at it, I am an artist all around. I have painted over 4,000 portraits and celebrities/rock stars own my work including John Carter Cash, Cj Ramone, Doyle Von Frankenstein, Eric Roberts, and more. Art comes natural to me and I can teach you to paint whatever your heart desires. I don't call it work because it is something I love to do. I believe everyone is an artist, and I can help unlock the artist inside of you if you give me a chance. I like to see the look...
