It began innocently enough.
The Crayola box with 8 colors soon advanced to the 16 pack then the 24 and then the box with 64 colors with the built in sharpener.
There was no going back.
It was when I started painting, that I realized that I had found my reason to be on this planet.
Everything fit into place.
Me.
The house paint.
The canvas.
Everything just fit.
I consider myself so danged fortunate to have found my passion in life because many do not.
Many of the lines in my paintings are made with squeeze bottles.
Yes.
Like ketchup and mustard.
I am totally self taught and the challenges and mysteries of painting are constantly keeping me on my toes.
What did you do yesterday? I painted.
What did you do last Friday?
I painted.
What did you do the last 13 years?
I painted.
I am a big believer in the “10,000 hour rule.”
