I started painting purely by accident about 6 years ago. Within a short time I was doing festivals, shows, commissions, charities and galleries. Had a few slumps here and there, but for the most part I'm doing well. Spent most of my time early on learning about all the greats, techniques, genres and some tricks of the trade. Eventually i would like to open my own gallery with 3 other different artists with the concept of making our art accessible and affordable. I believe all homes regardless of "class" should own original art. I do not limit myself to just one theme because the art society says it's the only way to success. I paint with passion and love to please myself and make others smile. I'm enjoying my life and my God given craft to the extreme. Wish me luck as I do all of you.
