Up, Down or in the Round? Artwork

born 1942 Kinston, North Carolinalived in California since a wee child. Father a 22 year marine who retired and then went to art school. I absorbed it all ( except the military) and have been a working artist for many, many years.Painting is my meditation. the most compelling, even haunting force propelling my images has been an unquenchable thirst for recording and expressing transformation. I try to synthesize different influences in my life into9 a rich and complex imagery that tells of the connection between the outer experience of daily life and the inner world of a developing spiritual heart.
