# About me

My work is a natural instinct expression of humanity, not perfect or flawless as many would expect in realism. It is, rather, a time consuming journey on a quest to retrieve certain details, placement of shapes, carefully composed in various mediums. I attempt to take lead of the viewers mind and thoughts for a moment on this journey with me. The audience may not see or realize the time or work involved to present this final work to be appreciated. The relevance of the behind the scenes can often create more respect and appreciation of the work. There are no shortcuts to my work and each piece takes a certain amount out of me, but much like the human body, it regenerates before the next work. Human life is one of my main objectives to achieve in artwork through realism. I hope you enjoy my work, thanks for looking!

Thanks! You have some great work as well... Photos are great for big work, paintings and such. The new camera I just got really made all the difference, it caught most all of the details I put. :) (Smile)

Thanks! I may follow up on that im waiting to hear back from one of my GF's friends who does photography to see if she will take some on a down day or something since it souldnt take too long. I need to get it into a photo ready state too. they are all pretty much in plastic sleeves and need better signatures on them.

Yep im nowhere near that far along lol. I'm still educating myself on what I need to get so that I don't waste the little I can afford to spend.
