I started drawing and painting at age 5, working in oils by age 8.
Finally pursuing my passion for art after a 20 year-detour as a U.S. Navy mechanic. Genre/media of choice; portraits, murals and pretty much anything that's not nailed down. I enjoy scouting thrift stores, garage sales (and scavenging on trash days) to find unusual items to transform. I'm pretty resourceful and willing to undertake just about any project-the more bizzare, the better.
I have no established recurring list of favorite shows, preferring to plan my participation based on my time, budgetary constraints, and whether I feel like the show will have good "CHI" (positive energy). Recently de-activated my Facebook AND website to give me more time to PAINT; so if you'd like to discuss an idea-or just say "Hello"-use my email, DJLIVES2PAINT@GMAIL.COM. ....OH, and P.S; if you notice somebody rooting in your junk at the curb the night before garbage days, please don't call the cops.
