I'm from San Antonio, Tx and anything in the art world interests me. I'm self taught with some education at San Antonio Jr. College, and painting courses at the Glassell School of Art in Houston, Tx. I enjoy painting in pastel and using Corel Painter as a digital medium.
I have a unique and beautiful way of working with Bull Skulls and acrylic mirror.
I'm always creating and enjoy editing photos and designing graphics for my friends and thier friends and so forth. I do this for my love of the creative process and a sense of fulfillment.
I hope you enjoy some of what I do as I know I will for you.

Artist Statement
As long we enjoy what we do, we're doing the right thing. That's all that matters. No big deals! Someone once told me that if what I painted was not very good, no one else in the world can do it like I did and that makes it uniquely me. I'm not what I think I am. I'm what I think.
Favorite Medium
Pastel, pen & ink, sculpture and mixed media as well as digital painting with Corel Painter, and of course, Photoshop.
