A FEW THINGS ABOUT THE ARTIST

1. What do you do when you’re not making art? (Day job etc...).

When I’m not making art I’m trying to show it and sell it. Other than that I like to eat LOL, sleep, watch movies and take long walks in the woods.

2. Why do you make art?

I have a constant drive and urge to create visual images with color. I walk through life looking at things through a window of how I could make a painting with what I see.

3. What inspires you?

I’m inspired by the intensity of life and a sense of humor about everyday things.

4.What/who are your influences?

My influences have been other artists, my artist mother and mostly my intention to elicit a reaction from the viewer of pleasant surprise from my use of brilliant color and purposely distorted perspective.

5. If you could meet anyone dead or alive who would it be?

Henri Matisse.
