My personality and humor comes across in my work with pieces centered around the latest Current Events and Pith take's on names and places where the work will reside. I like to get people thinking about many things and there is always an underlying Satirical element or point of view to my work.
I have a love of the Old, the 50's, Nana-ana formerly known as (Kiwiana) and Pop Art, which all influences me to create my One off Hand Brushed originals (yes by hand, no stencil's) & Limited Edition Giclee's.
I leave you with this Adage given to me by a Client and a quote from a Art Historian.
"Verba Volare Scripta Manet" meaning "Spoken Words fly away Writing is Permanent"
Commercial art is often more ingenious than pure art. It has to combine an image with a message in away that pure art does not.
