I guess I was born with the desire to draw. I can remember my Grandmother telling me that idle hands are the devils playground and wasted talent is a sin. As a kid I spent many hours drawing and studying the works of Charlie Russell and wishing I could draw and paint just like him. Maybe I can tell a story through my art and maybe I can find my own story along the way. My art is mainly pencil, pen and ink and oils. I work from my own photographs and sketches.
