As a young boy I went to school in Los Angeles, where my school lacked proper funding to purchase text books. To get me to read my photocopied primers, my father drew pictures in the handouts. His attempts missed the mark, and I became more fascinated with the drawings than learning to read. I began honing my craft, making drawings on the inside of my father’s books (much to his chagrin…). Rather than scribble on books, now my work is done on paper and illustration board. I work mainly in gouache and watercolor with a bit of digital enhancements. My art is a throwback to my youth, fairytales tinged with a bit of the odd and mysterious with a narrative quality. Someone once wrote that my work has a “timeless feel with a dark and whimsical edge”. I like that. These days I call Lexington Kentucky my home.
