A Brush with Creativity

In May of 2002, seven years ago, I sat down at a desk for my first art lesson. The results were not exceptional - until I decided to treat the art of learning art as an excercise like going for an MBA degree. Every week I sought out teachers, flew to stange cities to get at the talent I needed to make it as a watercolourist. I painted each and every day, indoors when outdoors was impossible. Slowly and perhaps painfully, I began to get where I wanted to go - to be in galleries, have shows, be printed into books and, of course, to sell. Today I have reached an acceptable altitude of skills and intend to keep going and learning from those in the rareified air above.

I teach, I critique, I paint, I win awards sometimes and have a modest few collectors who relish my work for their homes and collections. Painting - it's what my right hand was made for - and here are a few:
