Animal Portraits
"This is a view I see often in my wooded backyard – a doe with her fawns.  I have attempted to capture the stunning characteristics of a mother who is very cautious of the sights and sounds that are all around her young ones."wa
"This is a bird that can be found in the mountains of southern Europe to central Asia.  I love the colors, beauty, and variety of birds from all over the world."
"My faith is predicated on the knowledge that God’s original purpose for the earth was for it to be a global paradise where animals and people would live in peace and harmony.  This painting encompasses a desert full of lush green vegetation and flowers.  It is also noteworthy that the mountain lion may not be ferocious or aggressive.  My intent is that the owner of this artwork will enjoy the painting for years to come and one day see its fulfillment in person."
"Personally, I find pelicans to be very fascinating birds especially because of their prehistoric appearance and for the way they fly and descend in flight to fish for food. White pelicans are somewhat rare and scarcely populated in respect to other pelicans. However, if men continue to violate their natural habitat via heavy pollution, most pelicans in general will become sparse."
"I have always been intrigued by feline facial structures which all seem to invoke a measure of guilelessness no matter how wild they are.  None have this characteristic more than the cheetah – the fastest animal on the earth."
"I wish to share my intrigue of this vivacious animal as it seems to be having the romping time of its life in some kind of amusement pursuit as it plays in the wild.  The fur, the face mask, and the ring tail are all notable features of this animal and with this print it can be your or your child’s own personal pet.  It is noteworthy that the raccoon is the State animal of Tennessee and is generally considered to be genetically a cousin to the panda bear."
"Just as one sees the colors of a prism although in reality it is transparent, this elk may appear to be in dire straits in a winter storm when in reality it is basking in the stillness of a winter day."
