Visual Art – Portland

When I was young I used to melt my color crayons with my desk lamp and paint my bedroom walls. I took one hell of a beating for that. If only my parents and I knew I only needed paint. I am a self taught painter of 20 years who is partially colorblind. The irony is, I love color and using it to bring a painting to life. I paint in acrylics and my topics or theme vary. The world is full of sadness so I try to paint topics that are light and up lifting. I paint for myself, not what is marketable, and I would rather not stare at something on my wall that is depressing.
