Self taught artist
Originally from the art rich community of Montreal, Canada, I have lived in Florida for the past 10 years. Painting used to be a down-time hobby, however, passion for the creative side and the drive to learn has taken the art into a full time career. My primary focus has been to paint like the Masters and the Group of Seven. In this regard I have followed the techniques of Stepehn Quiller, a master of color.
Each painting has a purpose or meaning, be it to catch the feeling of a certain scene or simply caputre the depth in structure and color in a way that draws one into the painting. Initial media was watercolor and for the past 4 years I have focused on Oil. My current focus is now in mixing my own colors from pigment as opposed to the tube. I also focus on all aspects of prepping and finalizing a painting in order that it has the same quality against time, (archival value).
Fine Art America is a great website for artists. A fine way to stay in touch with the artists and most recent work for collections. You can add this site to your watch list of art with ease and follow those that you enjoy... I would also encourage you to share with your friends...
