D B Watson

I am both an artist and a writer. When not doing either I am your basic scalawag, but a rapscallion with a heart. When I have nothing better to do I sometimes work to pay my bills.

At times in the past I have been a ballplayer, a soldier, a boxer, a fed, a private investigator, a playwright, a poet, an electrician, a carpenter and a therapist, among other things.

At the bottom of this page is a direct link to my site and the rest of the paintings.

Like Gauguin, I walked away from security and a well paying job to have more time to create.

Although I love the works of many artists, both past and present, I try not to ever be influenced by other artists. The point is to stay as original as possible and so, if anything, my inspirations are drawn from a wide range of life experiences.

If you really want to know more please go to my Live Journal Blog (the link is below). My life is in those stories, the poetry and the art gallery.
