BIOGRAPHY He
started it'sALLart in 1995 and currently works with midwest area and
national businesses and organizations utilizing graphic design, writing,
broadcast scripting, illustration and website design. In June of 2003, he opened it'sALLart gallery in Fountain Square in Indianapolis, showing his and other artists work. After nearly a year of promoting and advertising the gallery, he moved his studio back to his home and concentrated his efforts with other regional galleries in order to focus on working primarily in his studio and plein air. He
now spends time creating new works and concentrating on direct sales
to interior design professionals, galleries, retailers and individuals.

ARTISTS STATEMENT My artistic direction has had several influences since I began as an illustrator in 1977. When an artist starts out as a commercial illustrator in a small market such as Indy, you soon learn that survival means the ability to work in a variety of styles. This has had an indelible impact on my skill as an illustrator and my fine art vision. Whereas most artists struggle to break free of whatever self-imposed style ruts they have fallen into, I struggled to narrow my focus to a few styles instead of the constantly changing myriad that seemingly comes natural. In the early years I tried to work against this problem and was quite disheartened by it. But after some time, I learned that, much like a good actor can be many characters, I can speak many languages through my art and began to embrace this multi-faceted approach. Since that time, I have learned to go back to specific styles and enjoy watching each particular style progress. I now have a growing catalog of works in each which I can utilize to create a larger and more diverse body of work. I'm encouraged and blessed by the fact that so many people have thought enough of my work - regardless of my unpredictable artistic journey- to purchase it for their homes and offices. |
