  As an artist, I am inspired to paint everything around 
  me. Given our technological advances, I am 
  intrigued by our society’s desire to re-invoke the 
  ideals of a more comprehensible period in our 
  history. Specifically, I am drawn to the significance 
  that our pin-up girls had during WWII. During this 
  time, pin-up girls helped provide the inspiration and 
  motivation for our soldiers to fight and win the war. 
  These soldiers had a dream to come home to and I 
  believe pin-up girls have not been fully appreciated 
  for that contribution. "Worth fight'n for".

 As with all art, there are those who critique and
 those who simply appreciate for whatever response the
 art evokes in them. Some people wish to analyze my
 art for its formal and historical dimensions and some
 people think my pin-ups are just “cool.” Whichever
 stance the receiver represents, I am focused on
 depicting the beauty and sensuality of a significant
 iconic image in a dramatic and tumultuous time in our
 history. Ultimately, I wish to re-invoke something
 that is quintessentially American- old Cadillacs, old
 music, and beautiful real women of substance and
 character. My passion for art is so enveloping that
 when someone recently asked me if I could choose any
 profession what would it be. My response was quite
 simple: I don't have to choose. I am an artist.
