Original artwork description:

I have loved art since I was a child and I am inspired by what I see around me. My works express the beauty and peacefulness of people doing everyday things. In this painting, "The Watchman" is the star as he is deep in thought and contemplation while keeping watch .

As an artist, what I see around me motivates me to capture moments in time. I am also passionate about exploring color. I want the colors that I use in my paintings to help express the overall mood. My main medium is acrylic paint. Using acrylic's gives me the affect that I want in my work since it dries fast and I can add layer upon layer quickly. The layers build and become the wonderful colors and also the texture that I am aiming for. Besides the texture that is created through the layered paint, using the coffee bean bag adds unique originality and even more texture to the painting. I believe that everyone should have original art in their home. When you view my works it is my desire that you will be inspired by the scenes and uplifted by the content.

Materials used:

Coffee bean bag, acrylic paint, on stretchers, hanging wire attached
