Art Approach: Love to sketch with charcoals on paper, pastels on paper, and paint with acrylics on canvas panels and regular studio canvas. Have insomnia sometimes and when painting in the middle of the night will sign a sideways 69 next to my signature. I have never had any formal art instruction. I don't like to get caught up in a particular style, because to me that is like producing art with a 'cookie cutter'. I will not be confined to any particular style. I have my own developed sense of what I wish to paint and how. I love Georgia O'Keefe, Grandma Moses, Alex Grey and Andy Warhol. They follow their own artist approaches and that is what I think makes the soul of an artist, what compels them to create. Essentially the 'drive shaft' to their 'gear boxes' of thought to create. The primitive style is my favorite.

My statement: I like chalk pastels on paper and acrylic on canvas the most. I really enjoy abstract and surrealism. I am not afraid to paint what I feel. I paint from my experiences, from interaction with people and from my dreams. I am not sure if I can be compared to any other artist, because I've been told that I listen to my own beat of the drummer when I create. If you ask me what I think about something or someone, it just may be answered on paper or canvas. All original pieces of my work I sign a certificate of authenticity to go with the original. I do not with Giclee. I am not a big fan of those that steal my style. Which with any collector would be an apprehensive situation. I don't condone those that steal my style. I guess that is where copyright comes in.
