I am living in rural Alabama now. Where I was born. Before coming back here I lived in the San Francisco bay area for 30 years.
I some of the painters I admire are Francisco Goya , Elisabeth Louise Vigee Le Brun . And Rembrandt van Rijn , I went to Amsterdam to see his painting " The Night Watch ".

I was a self taught American Primitive .
In 1995 I begin studying with a master painter.
After several years with his help I started to learn to paint. I was told I needed to work on my drawing. I went to Paris where I made more than 100 drawings of the sculptures and paintings there. Spending many happy days wandering through the galleries with my drawing pad, drawing and drawing.
