I am old school entering the new generation of technology, where reality has become almost surreal due to the internet, computers and A.I. New tools have become available to today’s artist replacing brushes with a new technology leaving the artist behind. For the art buyer and art investor is has become even more complicated not knowing if the art has been created by the artist or with the assistance of computers or A.I. whether the artwork is an original, giclee, print. Being, “Old School” I continue to paint using real paint brushes, high quality oil paints and mediums. I stretch and prime my own canvases without the influence and assistance of computers and A.I I create and paint what I think and feel, not what is in today. I don’t paint wall decorations to match furniture. Art is a process, part of life, to learn, to love and to explore. I learned the techniques used by the old masters, learned their styles and developed my own along the way. Art is a passion over which I have no control. It’s a continuous process without physical and mental rest. It is always in motion. I realize how lucky I am to be an artist. I cannot imagine being anything else.
