Metamorphosis

Since 2002, I have lived or worked on Gasparilla Island. The beautiful surroundings and Florida wildlife here have always inspired me. I grew up vacationing on the island - fishing here with my family. My father has captained a tarpon boat here every season since the 80's.
   Many of you know me from my work in the community as a luxury real estate agent. I took my position as a Realtor very seriously and successfully closed deals each year, bringing happiness to both buyers and sellers. To each person I have had the opportunity to work for or with, I am very thankful. It was for these customers that I was able to achieve the awards, leadership roles, and accolades that I did achieve as an agent.
   I've been an artist since I was a child, and professionally working as an artist for about 10 years in my time between real estate closings. In 2013, I have finally come to a position where I can follow my heart and pursue art full time.
   To date, I have a series of historic Florida paintings underway. This series will highlight some of the faces, places, and wildlife species unique to Florida and dear to me. I am very excited to be beginning this project. The first painting in the series is titled, "Chief Tony's Mother" and is of a Seminole from the Ft. Lauderdale area (painted from a photograph taken circa 1905). The painting has been to just two shows, and already has a "buzz" about it. You can see it on my website.
   Also in 2013, I have projects in the works for a line of clothing, several local murals, and new paintings to continue my Gulf Life fish painting series. New silk paintings and custom fish mounts are also in the works. Bookmark my website for future updates!
   Please do feel free to contact me about real estate. I am working with other real estate agents to make sure that my existing customers are well cared for, and will continue to maintain my license. Together, we will plan the best scenario for your next move. I look forward to what is ahead!

VIP EMAIL SIGNUP LINK

There have been multiple asks for a link to my VIP email signup form. Here is the link! Thank you for your interest in my artwork. The VIP Patrons on my list enjoy advance access to new artwork. Art Launches happen as I complete new artwork. I can't pre-schedule my creative process! My art is in demand and many times the originals sell to my VIP Patrons before ever being released to the public market. This is the singular best way to see all of my new art and have a shot at purchasing it.  Otherwise you will have to wait for me to do a public art launch. :(  Who likes to wait?  Especially when it means most likely missing out on buying your choice of artwork.  For instance, I launched a turtle painting this month (February 2018) to my VIPs and sold it within  minutes . There were a dozen inquiries to that painting. That art is not going to be reproduced as a print, so the patron who acted on the email offering was able to acquire a ver...
