Introduction I have been creating art all of my life. I've worked as a commercial artist, illustrator, humorous illustrator and cartoonist. Now, I'm concentrating solely on painting. Basically self taught, I recently received my formal art education (later in life than most) at the University of North Texas. I paint what I see. I paint what I think. I paint what I want to say. With my art I connect myself with the world around me. I am inspired by light and shadow as well as mood and metaphor. I paint the familiar. My art is intensely personal, yet it is meant for all to find meaning. My subjects are from every day modern life. I seek to express value and beauty in the commonplace.
