Native Utahn Contemporary Impessionist. Born 1975. Still living in Utah. (Pretty spoiled by the natural beauty I guess. I highly recommend visiting)
My love for art began at a very young age. Some of my first memories are watching my father at his drafting board and being amazed at the creative process of bringing thoughts to life without words. I loved the comic strip in the newspaper and drew many many cartoons for my grade-school pals to giggle about. Throughout school I took almost every art class I could. Perhaps from my love of cartoons I soon fell in love with the work of Van Gogh. It's no use trying to hide what a huge inspiration he has on my artwork. My college career didn't last long as life's responsibilities gave way to working overtime hours as a concrete mason. With little time and money as a young man there are few early paintings. Most of my creative passion was once again invested in funny little drawings to make my wife and young boys laugh.
