Where Fire Meets Art:
A Creative Journey

Imagine art that comes to life through the dance of flames... welcome to my world of pyro-chromatic arts. I'm an artist who doesn't just create art; I transform materials through fire, passion, and a lifetime of creative exploration.

Crafting Stories, One Flame at a Time:

With over 20 years of experience, I've developed a unique artistic language that speaks through pyrography, woodworking, beadwork, and glass sculptures. Each piece tells a story, each technique a testament to the magic that happens when creativity meets craftsmanship.

My artistic journey has been shaped by formal training at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and Kent State University, where I studied Graphic Design and Fine Arts & Journalism. But my real education comes from the streets, community spaces, and collaborative projects that have defined my career.

Beyond the Canvas:
Community and Creativity

Art isn't just what I do... it's how I connect with the world. From the "We The People" and "The Journey" Art of Inclusion projects, to the Multilingual Hospitality Mural in Canton, Ohio, I've used art as a bridge between cultures, communities, and conversations.

As a co-founder of the Massillon Community Arts Council and an ambassador with the Canton Symphony Orchestra, I've learned that true art transcends the visual... it's about creating experiences, sparking dialogues, and inspiring change.

Curious About My Process?

Every piece you'll find in this shop carries a piece of my journey. The burn marks, the carefully chosen woods, the intricate beadwork... they're all invitations to explore, to ask, to connect.

Want to know more about how I create art that breathes with life? Wondering about the stories behind each piece?
