A little bit about me. I have always been interested in art. It started out with loving all my art classes in high school and living in the art class room. After pursuing an education in a more broad sense, I started professionally painting in 2007.  Wanting to further my skill set, I decided to pursue a cabinet making/mill work diploma, and that is when I realized I had a passion for design. Upon completing an Associate of Arts in Interior Design, I relocated back to Madison and had several wonderful painting opportunities pop up, and the rest is history. My wife Brenda and I started Refine Paint & Design at that moment, and we have been professionally painting ever since. 

 

Outside of work, I love hanging with Brenda, our sweet dogs, my parents, and enjoying the outdoors in the summer. During winter, you will find me working or hibernating indoors. I love traveling when I can, and am an avid music lover.

CO-OWNER

Hi, my name is Brenda and I want to tell you a little bit about myself and how I got into painting with Amber.  As a kid I was always outside enjoying nature, digging in the dirt trying to find dinosaur bones and thinking I was helping my parents out with numerous house projects, sometimes writing my name on the walls.  I always had a passion for drawing and painting and my painting skills have definitely expanded since my younger years.  After I graduated high school I took a brief hiatus from education and then went to a technical college and got a degree in natural resources and urban forestry.  I worked in that field for several years until life brought me into real estate. I started helping Amber out with a few small painting projects and fell in love with it.  I love the detail oriented part of it and it is very zenful for my mind.  It’s amazing how  transformational color is to a home or business.  I love what I do and being a part of making someone’s home or office feel like they want it to.  

 

In my free time I enjoy being home with Amber and my dogs, my own little paradise.  I also love going on hikes, watching and listening to wildlife and getting my hands dirty in my yard.
