I was the first person in my family to go to college. The fact that my pragmatic parents sent me to college to study Art of all things, blows my mind. I am forever grateful. While in college, earning my degrees in Art and French, I concentrated on oils and printmaking.
After graduation, I worked in graphic design for a few years. Then I followed my father’s footsteps and became an air traffic controller. It was a great career. After 25 years of ATC, I felt God say in my spirit, “It is time to retire from this. Now you will return to your first love (art), and this time it will be with Me.” My response? OK, yes SIR, I’m all in! Since retiring from ATC in 2015, I have been pursuing my passion of art in various mediums, including oils, charcoal, pastel, graphite, and acrylics. I believe a good foundation in drawing makes for a good painting. My style is representational, with room for loose expression. I believe every painting has a purpose, and has the power to pierce through our barriers, to penetrate straight into our hearts. Art can speak what words cannot.
You are a masterpiece. |
