I’m a self-taught southern folk artist who has painted professionally for 26 years. I find peace of mind in my special style of artwork. I always start with a title; the title takes a picture in my mind. The picture in my mind takes me back to early 1900’s. Living within my artwork, painting happier times was the only way I got through each day after sinking into a depression with feelings of helplessness, rejection, and loneliness. My personal quote that I live by every day is “the sun comes up in the east and sets in the west. You pray to God that everything will happen good in between but sometimes it doesn’t.”
