About
Beautiful Italian landscapes, seascapes, vineyards, architecture, statues, and all the scenes I love discovering have been brought back to my hometown of Houston, Texas. The breathtaking vistas have been recorded through my timeless photographs, created on canvas, metal, and fine art papers. Now I am creating mixed media original artworks, inspired by my travel journeys. My international and domestic art shows, exhibitions, museums and art galleries include:
