Why I create art ? I’m not really sure it is something I must do as much as breathing. I love doing portraits and figure ,ww2 aircraft.

I perfer to create realistic art striving to the realistic art created in the late 1800s like Solomon j Solomon and Elkins . A passion is getting emotion to come across from the portrait or figure. Another is depicting aircraft and crews from the Second World War especially that of the us 8th army Air Force. I don’t paint any combat but try to honor the men who were there .
Where do you find inspiration?I can find inspiration anywhere. If it was possible I would do a portrait of everyone I could. I find something interesting in anyone’s face.
What would you do with $25,000?That’s a good question. Wouldn’t have to worry about bills for a bit be but would like to do some free clinics were I could teach folks to draw and paint that way the participants could just enjoy the experience of creating.
