BIOGRAPHY


I AM NOT REPRESENTED BY A GALLERY, ANYWHERE!!! REPRESENT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT REPRESENTING, I NEED A GOOD HARD REPRESENTMENT!!!!!!!
I am self taught in painting and photography. At the moment I am paying great attention to the art of portraiture, using both photography and oil paint as mixed media. I work in both small and large scale images.
I am trying to develop and change the way portraits are usually done. I hate portraits of famous people trying to look famous! They don't make any sense. I am trying to capture something of the sitter, their spirit, their personality, their demons and their blessings. So that when you come to look at my portraits, you are looking at someone that hopfully will give you an idea of who they are. To do this, I use photography and oil paint.

If I had to pick a favorite, today it would be the Portraits gallery you have, some of those are incredibly eerily beautiful. .

HI, Clay! Thank you for your comments. I like your transparency.....and your understanding of what your art is and who it is for. I so hope that MY art is not about ME! Interestingly, as artists we often must surrender any origins of our art....the viewer owns it...and defines it....in an instant. Sometimes this takes my breath away! Much, much luck to you and stay in touch. You smile good, too! (: .

Remarkable work that borders on the Warholian spirit! I'm in the same boat as you regarding reps, all I can say is, keep on keeping on... .
