The story of my art…….
In the beginning, I as all artist try to express, I had a strong explanation but I did not see it, but God did. I had drive, I Just did not understand what it was. Some of my early works shows the struggle and moving into pro years, I am telling you I had no idea, i was for the rest of my life to paint LOVE.
The long story……
first I was broken and then I saw……. I was to express that place in your heart keeps you moving forward, that deep down drive, LOVE, it’s really bold of me in a way to even assume that I could consider that important message was mine to express? But I really have no other explanation, I have a desire to paint that emotion, and to keep going deeper as I learn not only techniques but emotionally charged scenarios as told through animals. In some ways it would be so much easier with facial movements of a human, but I just have a drive to do it through animals. Innocent love, unconditional love , yes I am still climbing , and looking and wanting to do that expression love. Recently a few years ago, I had once again pulled through a severe time in the hospital, several days on a ventilator….. I am better then I have ever been! I prayed one day, I asked, …. what is it you want me to do? And in my mind I heard two words, PAINT LOVE, ONLY HE, whispered it, but it is why when I then looked backed, the body of work I had left in my house after illness took me away from my art for quite sometime, and I clearly saw, I had always strived for this . He has been pushing me for a long time. So this is my journey through LOVE….. BE BLESSED!
