I’m a father of 6, a veteran with disability. I’ve, in the past few years, been teaching myself how to paint. I’ve used it as a mental health tool and had no idea how much I was going to love it.
Unfortunately, I have a rare condition that limits my ability to a normal life. With painting, I’m able to fight through the mental struggles that come with my condition, and allows me to be the best I can be for my partner and our children.
While learning, I’ve realized that I had a talent, that I wasn’t aware of and began selling a painting here and there. The more I’ve created, the more I’ve sold.
My hopes are to make a living, without dependency on the government or anyone. Support my family, like I used to, only using my talents as an ambitious artist. To stand on my own 2 feet, despite this condition that currently plagues me.
I can paint anything that I put my mind to, but my energy comes from landscape, especially skies. I try to incorporate an amazing sky with an amazing landscape in every creation.
I currently only paint with acrylics, and I’m an amateur wood carver as well. I’ve created many wood works that I’m truly proud of.
Thank you for reading.
