I painted this violin to be auctioned at the Redlands Symphony's Gala fundraiser in June.
The title is Moondreams, named after a song written by Norman Petty and recorded by Buddy Holly.
An article in the Redlands Daily Facts has info about the other violins in the auction:

Born in Los Angeles, I grew up in Redlands and began painting commissioned murals at the age of 19. My clients have included the Cities of Redlands and Riverside, Loma Linda University Medical Center, and the San Bernardino Police Department.

In 2004 I returned to L.A. to attend Otis College of Art + Design to earn my BFA. During classes and internships I worked with notable artists including muralist Kent Twitchell, artist Suzanne Lacy and environmental artist Susan Steinman.
I moved back to the Redlands area upon graduation in 2007. I draw upon my surroundings for inspiration and continue to paint murals and oil paintings.
