)In a box of un-categorized stuff I came across work intermingled between elementary school photo-shoots and holiday gatherings. My, what memories. A copy of a Norman Rockwell masterpiece from my teens, an old masters surgical suite painted in oil for a Doctor as a present, myself up on a scissor truck (35 feet in the air - for weeks on end) against a shopping mall outside wall ! ((say that one three times fast))
... from the smallest of work (calligraphy class) ... to the Largest of work (unfinished wall murals)
Portraits of clients - with their arm around Elvis,
Medical Illustrations - depicting the Pelvis.
Fashion faux pas - often times Funny,
Calligraphy cards - hand made for a Honey.
Cartoon Strips - with subjects all things Health,
Technical Drawings - showing Military Stealth.
Calligraphy Class Photos - I was the Teacher,
Christian Radio Advertisement - alongside a Preacher.
Preamble to Constitution - shot from the Bleachers,
walking on beach - wearing no sneakers. OK - that was gratuitous
But, in essence this got me to thinking,... "I'm an ARTIST 4 HIRE" and have taken on multitudes of tasks - for the work ?! Yes, but also for the opportunity to grow, learn and soak up all I can. As long as I can remember I've always been more-than-interested in All Things Art
Some things I do until I'm sick of 'em, some till I feel I cannot improve any more - Most times till I learn all I can (with my self-taught approach) All-in-all I do stuff that interests me. It has a connection to my artistic DNA that makes my motor run, funny bone laugh AND blood flow like a raging river.
IF you watch me - I promise to surprise ya now and again with works no-one else has ever thought of,... AND maybe even Art that makes ya think.
