Artist
Resumé
Statement
I am an artist working
mainly in oil who focuses on the human form. Dedicated to the revival
of realism and objective standards of excellence in art, I seek to revitalize
traditional methods and painting styles honed by the Old Masters and
use them to express the world as I see it today.
