I have always loved art. It was my focus in high school, it was all I did. A few weeks before graduating I asked my art teacher, “So what do I do now to make money as an artist?” “You don’t,” he said. Fast forward a few decades ( ok more than a few ) I found myself with a long history of being self-employed as a Visual Artist. The one thing I had not tried to make a living at was painting. That crushing day in high school had always left me believing it was impossible. I had just sold my first E-Commerce business and had enough to live off of for a year. So I gave myself one year to make it work. One year to become a watercolour painter AND to support myself doing it. Not only did I succeed, but I also opened a gallery and art store and started teaching watercolour to others. Today my artwork is sold all over the world and my classes are available right here on my website!
I did everything I could to learn, I even went so far as to learn to make my own paint which I turned into another E-commerce business and eventually sold. When I went to bed it was what I was thinking about, when I woke it was what I was thinking about. I lived and breathed watercolour painting.
My style has evolved over the years. When I was a child I taught myself how to draw by copying Robert Batemen’s paintings out of my parent’s coffee table book. I have been drawn to wildlife ever since. My goal is to create a powerful portrait of the animal or bird, one that reaches out and grabs hold of the viewer.
Original Artwork
Please contact me to discuss purchasing original artwork. As I am usually someone on an ocean, it is not always easy to ship artwork. I am always happy to meet up with people where ever I am should they wish to purchase art or take a lesson or two.
Art Prints
Not everyone can afford or wants to spend a lot of money on original artwork. Maybe you know someone that has an appreciation for watercolor painting or a particular type of bird or animal. These affordable art prints will last for generations, are sized to fit off-the-shelf frames and ship FREE to your door. What more could you ask for? Most important to me is the inspiration I get when someone purchases a piece of my artwork. It really means the world to me and I can not thank you enough for your support.
