I have been painting "something" most of my life. When I was young I used my brothers model car paint to decorate rocks and boards and whatever I found interesting. I have won art awards since Elementary School and from High School on, when my mother bought me my first professional set, I have painted mostly with oils and watercolors.
Murals on walls has always been a big part of my creative release. I lost a security deposit at an apartment once because I painted some huge trees and animals on the walls that I didn't paint over before I moved. I would have taken the walls with me if I could. They were not amused, nor did they understand. Needless to say, I did not get my security deposit back!
Most of my work through the years has been sold, left behind during a move, stolen or given away, sadly, without any record of it.
I photograph all of my work now!
