The Waisman Center - Under the Sea Again!


A Sunset in Puerto Vallarta



The First Character Mural


Horsing Around


In the Jungle, the Mighty Jungle...





Noah's Ark - Animals two-by-two



Round and Round in the Baby Room


The was the second mural painted in a baby nursery, I painted this one in 2002 at a home in Waterloo, WI. The carousel was the primary focus of the mural; there were also hot air balloons and clouds floating around the room.

Under the Sea


This mural was painted in one of my professor's basement, shortly after I finished the Waisman center mural in 2001.  He wanted his daughter to have something to look at while she played downstairs, as well as a nice view while he was exercising.  The challenge with this mural was painting it in the corner, I tried to make it look like the walls were knocked out and you could walk into the sea.  

The Waisman Center - The first one


This was my first major mural at the Waisman Center, which I finished in 2001.  It took quite a long time, but we were very happy with the outcome.

A few years ago I had a great opportunity placed in front of me - to artistically paint all over a white wall and transform it into a big picture that brightens up people’s living space and lives. Since then, by word of mouth, the opportunities keep coming. Simply put, I paint murals. The murals I paint range from little detail with simple designs/characters to large walls with tons of detail. I have been drawing since I was very young and painting murals since 1998. I grow in artistic abilities and learn from each mural that I paint. This is a great way to share my love of art with you and your family. For me, the best part of the process is seeing a child’s (and sometimes an adult’s, too) eyes light up when they see the finished product.

So far I painted murals in public locations (Waisman Center, UW Madison Psychology Building, and YWCA of Madison) as well as many private homes. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact me and we can set up an initial consultation.
