Biography | |
I have been oil painting for 40 years. I have had some instruction public school and about one year of collage. When I was in collage I made a lot of pottery and sold it to help support my self. Thank God for the pug mill. After collage I worked for my father in the family printing shop. While working at the printing shop I learn how to make Jewelry. When I moved on from the printing shop I went to work for a Jeweler. I found that the owner of the shop paid little for the craftsman. I started doing street show to sell the jewelry I designed. I found that it is very hard not to have my designed copied. And that copy right didn't offer much protect against that. All this time I was oil painting. My style was developing during this time. Just recently I have discovered that there is nothing quite like the paintings that I do. After being laid-off from my last few jobs because of the bad economy. I think it time to sale my paintings. Besides my apartment is small and I need more room for the next flood of Ideas and Dreams. You can also see my work at "oilpaintingdreams.webs.com" this is my personal web site. |
