Welcome to my new blog
I have never had a diary in my life and don't intend to do so now but I would like to let my art viewers know who I am and the direction I want to take my art. It may take a while for this to grow to something worth looking at but I'll get it there.
I am retired from 30 yrs. of Federal work. I had put my art life on hold until my kids were on their own. Since I was a kid I had a pencil in my hand. My friends would ask me to draw a horse head for them or army tank etc. Later in high school I started painting on cars for buddy's, adding cartoon characters on the windwings on cars (some of you won't know what those are). Seems like all my life I have been interested in expressing myself in an art form. Now I am doing it and wished I would have started earlier.
I have tried many mediums but work in watercolors and oils. You will see my "style" differ in some work but so does a persons handwriting. I have been very successful in selling these last few years and use only the best materials available. I am fond of Plein Air painting but also delving into still life also.
Enjoy
Cheers
