Artist Statement
There are no rules to my art, I paint, draw, use the principles of art in ways that may contradict traditional norms but what works for me is what the spirits brings. I am guided by the forces of nature. my ancestors premeat what i do and i dare not disturb them, I am just a vehicle for their message.

Primary Influences
Mr. Welles, my Junior High School art teacher, Mr. Zietler, my HS art teacher were the first influences as they entered my work in shows and taught me technique....later i studied with Romare Beardon and learned painting and collage art-color and materials, Mexican Mural Artist....,and finally the Artist of the Harlem Renaissance ...jacob Lawrence and that elite group of African-American Artist.

Favorite Medium
Other peoples junk, paint, textiles, crayons, pen and ink, everything is a medium in my world of creativity.
