About Me
My Background
Raised in rural Minnesota. Educated in So. California. Graduating from UCLA with a major in Business focusing on product branding. Achieving a minor in Art History. Continuing graduate courses in fine art technique and marketing.
My work has been shown in numerous galleries throughout So. California and Florida. As well as providing private commissioned work on both coasts.
I am a Yale University Gallery member. Recently I entered into a licensing agreement with DISNEY for the use of my artwork in various television & movie productions.
In 2005 - 2012, I launched an International Fashion line, MISS FRITZ. Showcased in International fashion magazines and highlighted in the USA via PEOPLE MAGAZINE.
My newest fashion venture is BOTTOMS UP YOGA PANTS, a line of UVA athleisure wear that incorporates my art into a buttery soft fabric.
I no longer offer commissioned pieces. My original artwork and prints will be available online and at numerous designer showrooms and galleries in Florida.
Philanthropist / NCH Naples Comprehensive Hospital.
My family and I reside in Marco Island, FL
My Medium & Inspiration
My style is Fauvism a form of Impressionism. At the turn of the 20th century. The camera was becoming a more affordable way to accurately capture an image. Fauvism came out of this new freedom. Artists were free to create their interpretation. Vibrant colors, abstract portraits and bold lines. Picasso, Matisse and other Artisans welcomed this new form of expression. I paint with acrylic on canvas. My paintings reflect my love for the Gulf of Mexico. The whimsy of Key West. Recently, I completed "Urban Tropics" taking bright colors of the coast in a more abstract urban direction. Marco Island is always inspiring with its breathtaking beauty.
