ABOUT THE ART
"American Primitive Folk Art style s a natural for me. The simple, back-to-nature, old-fashioned life it depicts is the way I actually live. This gives me an endless supply of inspiration and ideas. And, even... models ! Missey, my real-life Jersey cow was the model for the "Give Away" painting, for example.
I create with a mix of media, predominantly acrylics and paint on "antiqued" wood panels. The "antiquing" process includes several layers of paint, alternated with a process that creates the aged, crackled effect that would be found on a very old, painted surface. "
