Fine Art OIl Paintings

I find my most satisfying work to be in the personal and fine art category. Unlike commercial work, where there are many restraints put on me that can stifle creativity, fine art allows me to enjoy the whole painting process. Being able to achieve a higher degree of emotion and texture through the traditional way of oil painting enables me to express more fully my love for people and costumes. I believe this delight is evident in my personal work. Having total control even extends into the framing process, as I have on several occasions made one-of-a-kind frames in my wood shop.
