Artist’s Statement: My passion for animals began early. At nine years old, I drew night after night with pastels, especially the Big Cats. With often no more than a quick look, an animal’s eyes give me a direct personal connection to its spirit. Drawing on the emotion and communication of this fleeting moment, I start with the eyes and let the rest of the piece radiate from these. Staying within a realistic style, I pay close attention to detail, playing up light and shadow and adjusting the cools and warms. I often spend from sixty to eighty hours on one creation.

As I work, layering color upon color, I return time and time again to the eyes. The eyes are my inspiration and heartfelt connection to the animal kingdom. They carry me through the drawing and painting, watching me, and I notice that my mind, heart, and hand feel as one.
