I am done for now. The napping duck is being put to rest for a while. Her cousins in the Canada Goose family are eager to be painted! Birds are such wonderful creatures to paint!
Thank you Tracy! What do you think...should I try this in miniature? (I'd destroy my eyes for sure!) Thanks Lloyd! You are always so welcome to drop in!
Oh Tracy! Twist my arm! Ha!!! Thank you Vicki! I just love birds of all feathers! I've just begun a painting of a Canada Goose stretching his wings. They are such show-offs. It should be fun!
I grew up in culturally diverse San Francisco Bay Area and indulged in all forms of creative venues varying from music and dance to rich visual treats at museums.
I earned a BFA in Graphic Design at CCA and relished in the fine arts and design courses offered there. I graduated just before the dawn of computer graphics applications and have always felt blessed to be one of the last students taught the disciplines of exacting, hands-on skills required of the pre-computerized field. We were trained to apply strict adherence to detail and almost Zen-like focus on precise execution. This disciplined arts oriented ideology has influenced my approach not only to what I do in the studio but to life in general.
Of course, I have learned computer graphics applications since. I would be deceiving myself if I didn’t embrace one of the most amazing and flexible tools available to the modern day artist/designer. I only hope my work reflects that of carefully thought out artistry and evokes sentiments of beauty and balance as good design is meant to do. Hopefully my passion for thought provoking art coupled with love of the outdoors brings you visual contentment and joy.
