How is your art made?
Each piece begins as a photograph I take right here in Key West. Using custom digital brushes and a pressure-sensitive stylus in Photoshop, I hand-paint over the image—adding whimsical texture, color, and movement. Once complete, the original photo is removed, leaving only the digitally painted art behind.
Every piece is printed as a museum-quality Giclée on canvas with archival inks, then hand-stretched over wood bars for a clean, gallery-ready finish.
Tell me about the printing process?
I personally print and hand-stretch each canvas using professional-grade equipment in my Key West studio. This ensures color accuracy, quality, and attention to detail—start to finish.
For matted and framed pieces, I work with trusted partners across the U.S. who match my craftsmanship standards.
