-I mostly use acrylic paint on canvas or birch plywood; depending on my mood or what I have on hand.

- I paint traditionally and experimentally, depending on the spirit of the piece. To see my process go to my "inside my studio" page.

-I do sell my paintings; this is how I make my living. If interested please contact me through my email page.

-I do commission work, however if I have a certain process I adhere to. I do several studies to find a mutual direction before I commit to under painting. All changes are made then. Once I put paint to canvas, no changes can be made and the sale is final.

-I did not go to school for art. I educated myself through experience and the local library. Plus I come from a lineage of working class artists. This is something I am proud of.

-Give me two days to respond to questions and emails; I'm always knee-deep in multiple projects.

-I'm sorry, but I do not do trades. I need my inventory to further my patronage.

- When doing commercial work, I generally keep the originals; However, I do offer the original at an additional price. Commercial work comes in any hi-res format you want.

-please do not ask for free tattoo designs. I am too busy and this is how I make my living. Soon I will have black and white designs available in PDF for purchase on our Etsy shop-DNA Gallery.

-Want to know how you can support the arts? Buy prints and originals. This is how it becomes possible for any artist to continue with shows and new work. Artists need you!

Thank you,
