Although i have had no formal education in any of the arts,
i have studied and appreciated drawing art most of my
adult life. My two college degrees are in unrelated subjects
dealing with marketing research and its endless world of
interpreting the meaning of numbers. Midway through my
adult life i felt the need to create something from within
my being based on my emotional life dictates so i started
to design jewelry over a ten year period but did not want to
follow the unpredictable fashion trends. So i stopped that
pursuit. I then became interested in photography which
enabled me to document aspects of life in an unrehearsed
spontaneous manner in third world countries in the orient
which i traveled to many times trying to capture the inherent
dignity of indigenous people and their way of life.
However i am now handicapped and my mobility is limited so
that the only comfortable working position is sitting down.
I started painting on the computer using the editing system
without resorting to using apts that can be purchased for
designing geometrically perfect pictures. I have been painting on
the computer for a little over three years. My art work has been
shown at two art fairs in the United States of America where the
first painting i ever did was sold giving me hope that there may
be others who might want to share my artistic experiences. My
designs are printed on canvass in sizes that maximize my artistic
intent and are ready for hanging. All my art is based on the
decomposition of one of my photos of the orient and rearranged
and modified those elements to create my abstract idea. for
those interested in purchasing my art the following delivered
price schedule can be used based on the size of print.
