De Beaux Fruits Painting

After 20 years of being an Art Director in advertising, design, and marketing, and then publishing six novels, I decided to dedicate most of my time creating two-dimensional art. While painting, I find a wonderful sense of freedom. I love not being concerned about always “staying in the lines,” or traditional use of colors, or the notion of making a mistake! Instead, I delight in the uncertainty of discovery and exploration. My work is personal and expressive. I employ charcoal pencil, pastels, acrylic paint, often using my fingertips, and Japanese oil pens. I refer to the work as graphic expressionism. I am married and live in Austin, Texas with my dog, and biggest critic, "Chino!" [Photo credit: © Jeremy Green]
