| Your Personal Biography |
Painting was introduced to me at age 10 by my Grandmother in the back of a small town art studio. We went once a week during the summer to art classes where she and I both worked on Oil Painting together. My Grandmother worked in the 60's part-time coloring Black and White Photography. Color blending and shading seemed to come naturally to me and so each week I would choose a Sea Scape to paint. I would have happily painted the blue and turquoise ocean water over the entire canvas. We had not heard of Abstract Art at that time and painting an entire canvas blue and turquoise would have been considered a waste of money.
"Of all the arts, abstract painting is the most difficult. It demands that you know how to draw well, that you have a heightened sensitivity for composition and for colors, and that you be a true poet. This last is essential." -- Wassily Kandinsky.
During High School I switched to Pencil drawing and I eventually was able to reproduce a Photo realistically, like a Xerox Photo copy. With the idea that a "real career" was in Commercial Art I went on to graduate from The Art Institute of Dallas. I have pursued Graphic Art for the past 10 years only to realize Fine Art is really where my heart has been all along.
Today I also utilize my Visual Arts degree to create balance and flowing color schemes with Acrylic paint on Canvas. |
