"Football - Giving It All (with Poem)" Print

Art with beauty is vital, but I aspire to more: To craft art that carries a voice, a spirit, an energy that becomes a talking point, an inspiration, a mood-lifter and shifter. Even art that causes the viewer to mirror the happy vibe of the painting and in turn give it others. Talk can be cheap. Here are some samples of the MANY HUNDREDS OF TESTIMONIALS (200 OF THEM) I’VE RECEIVED FROM BUYERS OF MY ARTWORK over the past 16 years, which shows what I mean: 1 “I loved the colours and imagination.
