I've been an oil painter since I was 8 and a sculptor since I was 15. I grew up with art and music around me and I thought that's how the world worked. By the time I was 13 I knew that I was an "artist" but I wasn't sure what that meant. Now after being an artist for forty years, I don't think I can describe what that means beyond the most personal translation. Art is not technique, nor is it marketing. Art is how one does things, Art is attitude. I have been influenced by the history of art as I've encountered it. There have been many artists I've admired and learned from. |

| I feel we all come from a long line of artists. Humanity is distinguished in part by the ability to produce things with our hands. I think with my hands. Much of the disassociation people today feel is because they do not work with their hands. Our ancestors not that long ago all produced crafts. When one forms a pot of clay one learns logic. The process of producing and the process of life are inseparable. |
