Thanks for visiting. Let me show you some of my work...
I am a retired businessman (formerly of Columbia and now of Greenville, SC) who turned to art late in life, I started out in Frances Nelson's painting classes, but since then I've been mostly free-wheeling. It's been quite a trip!
I started out in acrylics, but I prefer oils because of the subtleties that can be had with them. I've tried my hand at all sizes, but lately I've been "going big".
I look for that special something - contrasts between dark and light or near and far, shapes, colors that pop, or the sublime way a line moves.
I love being able to capture an idea, make it my own, and express it visually. Frankly, a lot of my inspiration and encouragement came from the three professionally-trained artists who painted with me for years in the Climb Studio of downtown Columbia. I'd love to be able to paint with the color and fluidity of Steven Whetstone, the abstraction of Craig Houston and the strength of Tim Adams.
I am supremely happy where I am now ( at Grace and Peace Art Studio here in Greenville), but, man, do I miss those boys at the Climb!
