Artist Statement:
Through renderings of botanical, ancient historical monuments, foreign landscapes, seascapes, I tell a visual story of life’s journey. I work in watercolor, acrylic oil paint, and occasionally, pen and ink using a tight, illustrative hand. I created and operate an internet radio station for the past 20 years, playing nostalgic radio plays. I have always been creative and a visual artist. However, with encouragement from my adult daughters, my art has taken a professional level, and direction.
My work is an expression of the adventure, and sometimes the torture, humans must endure. I like to say my work is “warm and fuzzy” however living in this world is not always that. Working in a representational style with a tight illustrative hand I am predominantly self-taught, and my passion for nostalgic radio, history, and world travel influence each piece.
I have always said that I am not out to change the world. If my works of art put a twinkle in the eye and a smile on the face of the viewer. Then I have achieved the same reaction as my internet radio station. Helping someone to take a break from their hurried troubled day!
