Happy Artist.jpg

I have been a self-taught artist for over 35 years.

I taught myself to paint while doing time in prison.

My teachers were books and magazines.

I became head artist on 5 units winning several prison art shows.

The old masters were and continue to be my artistic inspiration.

 

“I love the painterly realism style in which I emphasize the subject’s specific details but use broad brushstrokes in the margins.

Art is about reflection, to take from a piece your own interpretation, thoughts and feelings.”
