there's gotta be a record of you some place - you gotta be on somebody's books
the lowdown - a picture of your face, your injured looks....
the sacred and profane - the pleasure and the pain
somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete - and it's your face I'm looking for on every street...

on every street...by dire straits

 

My whole life Art has always been about experimentation and enjoying the successful results I get when I follow through with an idea. However, those results are sometimes few and far between. I spend a lot of my days constantly painting over painting after painting. Not being able to illustrate a concept correctly is frustrating and the reason most artists (and people in general) give up. But I never gave up. I continue to produce paintings. Some successful, some not

My sculpting abilities have grown significantly since I first produced a statue in 2000. I only own 3 of the statues that I've produced. But I've personally hand-made and sold close to 500 since then.

Selling statues has made me realize that Art is not always about the schools you've attended (I went to the best in my opinion.) or the galleries that represent your work. What matters, period, is the discipline of making the Art. The quality needs to be the best possible. And when you hold something I've done you will see this quality and feel good about your purchase.

Sincere thanks for continuing to support what I do!
