Many years ago, in the lot of a Grateful Dead concert, a young man told me he wanted to live in the scene on the canvas before him.  It was the most meaningful compliment I had received. Over the years I have heard echoes of the same theme and each time it speaks directly to why I create--- to create a place of rest, a visual vacation for one to rejuvenate and restore. I create a space of calmness and peace for the viewer.

 

My art borders the surreal and psychedelic, wrapped in the elements of nature and subtle fractals that underlie our everyday life. I find immense pleasure in nature. Water, trees, the nighttime sky really resonate with me. Quiet serenity and solitude will birth scenes from beyond that develop/translate to the canvas or screen with a measure of improvisation. I strive to bring a gentle kindness and grace into my work as these qualities are lacking in our hectic everyday life. This art is kind to my soul.  It is my hope you might find the same.

What's the Word?

Una is a talented artist and a pleasure to work with. Her style is extremely distinctive and original, but at the same time familiar to anyone with an eye for a 1960's inspired psychedelic aesthetic. The work we commissioned from Una - a postcard for the Grateful Dead's 50th-anniversary concerts - was extremely well received and highly collectable. We look forward to working with her again.

I have had the pleasure of working with Una on a couple projects. She is a joy to work with - a very gifted artist with a great ability to turn my sketchy vision into a beautiful compelling piece of art. Furthermore, Una is a great collaborator, always on time and very easy to communicate with. Besides her talent and professionalism, Una is also a very kind, cool person.

I had the pleasure of working with Una when she was at EastCoast Entertainment as well as after she moved and ECE utilized her design services on a project-by-project basis. She consistently delivers great design concepts and really listens to what the client’s needs are. She is timely, professional and highly dedicated to her work and art. I look forward to working with her on future projects.

I was looking for an artist who would be able to create a poster for a charity concert event when I was introduced to Una by a mutual friend.  
I shared with Una some details about the charity and asked her to create something that would incorporate a “classy psychedelic” motif and include the charity logo somehow in a “natural” manner without looking like it a sticker was pasted on top of a poster.  Simply put, Una delivered EXACTLY what I was looking for.  Her initial rough sketch looked great and when she followed up with her colorized version, it was truly spectacular.  Her ability to create an original design based on our wants and needs in such a short period of time was outstanding.  She was incredibly easy to work with and was timely in her deliverables to me. 
I would highly recommend Una to anyone looking for a graphic artist and will certainly hire her again for future events.
