"I have been etching or creating images for as long as I can remember – when I was young, art was my escape from a childhood asthma condition. As an adult, my artistic skills have provided me with many different opportunities. I have worked as a glass engraver at Silver Dollar City (a fun job when you're young or retired). I've been an Art Director and Graphic Design Artist for catalog companies, and in the late 80's-early 90's, I was a member of the advertising and marketing department at Walmart. I was also the Executive Vice President of an outdoor apparel company where I handled all marketing and design decisions. And I have even worked as a billboard art painter- just before printed vinyl replaced billboard art painters.
In this collection you will see several art styles and techniques using both oil and acrylic paint; some of my linear impressionistic paintings are such a rare style, many have come to recognize them quickly as being mine. I enjoy developing unique styles and approaches to painting on my personal creative journey as I you will see.
I am not actively seeking opportunities to sell my art, but at times I meet a person who want me to paint something specific for them - depending on the scope of the project, I am willing to discuss commissioned pieces.
I fully believe God provided me with my talent and I am so grateful to glorify Jesus Christ with it.
I also believe art is a gift from God and can help us to see truth. I enjoy scriptural artwork perhaps the most and I know it can be a powerful tool to help us reflect on the meaning of a biblical passage by calming our minds, allowing the text to be understood in a new light.
Thank you for taking the time to view my art.
