Paintings
Painting is my relaxing getaway from the chaos of the world. While in college, I studied painting and drawing along with getting my BFA in graphic design. The medium I used in my paintings was strictly oils. Charcoal, pastels, ink and pencil were my choices for drawing. I was mostly drawn to Michalengelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Mondrian, Kandinsky, Monet and Salvador Dali. Also, my talented father, Jack Wahl. In addition to being an oil painter, he had a career in creating paint-by-numbers at Craft Master and then CraftHouse. Today, as a result of graphic design as my career, I have ventured into acrylics and mixed media using recycled and textural elements. Most of all, I create to convey positive and warm messaging, because I believe in awareness of good and avoiding the negative.

Pet Paintings
Lola and Spike will always be a family member. A memorable painting will be a life-long visual of that sweet loving pet. If possible, I would get to know your pet and take photos, so that I can create an artistic composition and also capture their character and their best moments. If not, I can work with photos supplied from you.
