Music in red Painting

I have always drawn a lot as a child, I drew people, faces and comic book characters and all kind of things. I would spend every week-end drawing with oil pastel chalks on four large cardboards that I had taped together to form a six by four feet panel so that I could do one large artwork. Once completed, I would roll it up and bring it to school on Monday morning to show my class. I just can’t help creating something visual. I also love painting on wood boards because of the way I can draw, paint, scrape, scratch or sand it so that I can create my own textures onto it. Canvas has a predetermined texture which I also like but often it is really great to have a smooth clean surface and create that texture myself.
