Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose the former and have seen no reason to change.
Frank Lloyd Wright
In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I’ve been told my portraits capture essence, and that I don’t apply makeup I render a face. I strive to capture that as well as the hidden biographical nuances by looking intuitively. Working to produce a lasting personal revelation yet still keeping the photo realistic quality in the image. Sometimes it’s like opening Pandora’s box.
I enjoy rendering historical figures like that of Academy award-winning actress Anne Baxter (All About Eve) with her famed architect grandfather Mr. Frank Lloyd Wright (Guggenheim Museum), and Mr. Wright and Oglivanna Lloyd Wright. Yet the classic cinema imagery is a fun arena to explore as well.One piece I rendered of Anne Baxter, is in the collection of Anne’s daughter the very gifted lifestyle interior designer Melissa Galt (www.melissagalt.com) whose godmother is one of my favorite talents Hollywood’s costume guru Edith Head.
Taliesin West was one of my favorite places to draw sitting on the guest deck looking over the beauty while playing with a new subject. I learned so much as an artist there while teaching rendering to the apprentices yet as always I was the pupil.
Tiny Dancer was incredible to do. I called Maxine Taupin, and asked her if she would let me draw her, without hesitation she said "yes". On that piece I took the photographs I drew from I wanted to create the feeling of the lyrics in the Elton John song written by Bernie Taupin, Tiny dancer in my hand. The song has always been one of my favorite songs. Thanks for the inspiration Elton, Bernie and Maxine!
Inspired by the remake of the song For What it’s Worth by Berlin's singer Terri Nunn. Terri has that piece in her collection. Terri was an amazing subject both as a drawing as was applying her makeup . Her Academy award-winning song from Top Gun Take my Breath Away is amazing I still love listening to it.
Another person who has influenced my work is that of colored pencil artist Ann Kullberg. Her work is brilliant check it out for yourself. www.annkullberg.com
