As I always say, "It all started with a camera".  Since then I have moved on to acrylic painting in various styles.

One of the styles I create is the ancient art of "Pentimento" (defined as "Painting over") . I create original acrylic paintings using this unique technique by taking my personal photographs and using acrylic paint to create a "painting" of the image of the photograph. On the "Pentimento Paintings" page you can see examples of my work.

If you have a favorite photograph that you would love a painting of, I can convert that image into an original painting. The photograph and painting below  is an example of the Original Photograph and the Pentimento Painting of the same. If interested, please contact me.

Another style I refer to as "Primitive Abstract". These are abstract paintings of groups of and individuals . Some pieces are on stretched canvas, others on heavy paper designed for acrylic painting. Also you will find cigar boxes and books with original hand painted designs on them.
