<strong>Art</strong> has been my passion for as long as I can remember.<br />
I love people and I have relished drawing and painting<br />
the figure since my grade school days. Fortunately,<br />
<strong>no</strong>ne of those early grammar school portraits are at<br />
my website. My purpose is to create images that are<br />
beautiful and historical. My focus is to display Christian,<br />
family values and reveal the truth by reflecting historical<br />
facts. My Bachelor of <strong>Fine</strong> <strong>Art</strong> at the Kansas<br />
City <strong>Art</strong> Institute led me to a life as a full-time graphic<br />
designer and freelance illustrator for over thirty years.<br />
I enjoy the play of light and color in nature and I enjoy<br />
telling a good story.<br />
I have cherished having several Native Americans<br />
pose for me when I am <strong>no</strong>t painting commissioned portraits,<br />
or painting plein air. I have been interested in the<br />
life of Native Americans because of my ancestry. My<br />
grandfather was a cowboy, horse trainer and rancher<br />
in Fayetteville, Arkansas. He was married to my grandmother,<br />
who was half-Cherokee and half-African American.<br />
I remember when I was a little boy. Then, I would<br />
ride horseback and sometimes travel to see my grandfather<br />
in rodeos in Oklahoma and Arkansas; it was an<br />
awesome experience. Currently, I am researching the<br />
history of the relationship between Native Americans<br />
and African Americans in the old west. I have been<br />
fortunate to gain the assistance from the Texas Civil<br />
War Museum. Their historians assist me in my quest<br />
to insure all the artifacts in my paintings are authentic.<br />
My goal is to have my paintings auctioned successfully<br />
at the Coeur d’ Alene in Re<strong>no</strong>, Nevada in my lifetime.<br />
I am a member of the Oil Painters of America and I<br />
work in oil paint because I enjoy the flexibility of oils.<br />
I enjoy observing people and I still continue in figure<br />
drawing sessions with the live model. I challenge myself<br />
to work more efficiently by writing articles and blogs<br />
about different oil painting techniques and attending<br />
workshops. Some of the painters that have influenced<br />
me include; Norman Rockwell, Caravaggio, Howard<br />
Terpning and Mian Situ.<br />
I hope you enjoy my work!<br />
