"Amazing how a split second can slow down in your mind and thoughts explode in your head, you know? Rapid fire, like a jackhammer. The first die had stopped spinning and already landed on a deuce. The second was still dancing and I needed that five to hit in the worst way. I may look back on this as the biggest mistake of my life, but here we are. This is my one and only chance. Right now. This roll. If it works I'm a savior and the Women's Shelter can afford to stay open. But if I lose all of Jimmy the Saint's money... I'll have to run. Today. No doubt the shelter will be torn down, and I'll never be able to come back. I need that five to hit. And then I need to get all the money I took back into Jimmy's safe before he ever knows it was gone.I really need that five to hit. In the worst way. " I began my "outsider artist" journey painting on the backs of obsolete Habitat for Humanity signs. When I had gone through all could find I turned to other hand lettered, ad hoc plywood signs like the kind one might find advertising yard sales or farmer's markets. I flip them over and use the open wood panel to create art, including Deuce and a Prayer. My entire series of 2 foot x 2 foot verso homemade sign artwork are all on clean plywood and weigh ~3.5 lbs so they all will need to be hung in a frame.

After a 30 year career in advertising and sales leadership I escaped the corporate media world a few years ago and can now focus on creating my own work. In other words, I'm an outsider artist that has decades of ideas pouring out. My intent is primarily to create pieces of art that are highly visual and interesting to enjoy and study... but may often express ideas, ask questions, unearth feelings, debate opinions, or sometimes be provocative. Like many paintings though, they're often just a combination of lines, shapes, colors, textures, and space. That said; I hope my work presents a UNIQUE combination of art elements to you and that you like what you see. Better yet, I hope you believe some of my pieces should be included in your collection. I've traveled the world but have always lived in the Philadelphia area. While I have no formal training as an artist, I've been a photographer and I've been around the art community my whole life. My wife Suzanne works as a Docent for the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, and together we've raised three wonderful sons that are all now making their own way in the world. We have a home and our studio in Chester County PA with our Bernese Mountain Dog; Mr Charlie.
