Wow, art and life dont work smoothly togethor! But at the same time that I have not had time on my own artwork in my life, I have taken my artwork to a real life situation of teaching art to kids of all walks of life for a year now through a childrens art museum. I have taught kids as young as 5yrs old how to throw on a wheel to make a plate and taken thousands of kids on a "trip, 5000 years ago", to the beginning of art making in the caves of France and Africa.....and I have also taught to homeless kids the joy of art making in their distressed lives. Have also side tracked on a project for a friend based in a circus theme, so I have worked on backdrops and masks for a photo series project. Will post a few mask photos soon.
But I do also want time to get back to my own paintings...I want to do a few more in the current series about the 30's and then move on to other issues that need to be covered. I found I should focus closer on individual faces again to show my more intense expression through somebody elses face.
Anyway, will try to get back to it soon.

Thank you to all who are waiting paitently for my next few pieces....hope they come out good! LOL!

PS: I need old family photos I can paint from the 1930's era?

thank you for appreciating my artwork!

Your artwork as well can be very powerful, depends on subject matter. But your "twisted" :D style and color would also work well with many faces from across the globe.
Thank you so much! Keep painting! ;)

You are one of the best contemporary artists I have come across in a very long time. Your techniques are like nothing I've seen before. You are definitely a deviant to be watched! Cheers!

Nice work, I'm glad you posted the pic of you in the gallery. The framing on your pieces really unifies them. I wish I could have seen the show.
Thank you! the show was a long time ago now, but trying to get more recently
