What is your favorite type of art to create?

Mostly work in acrylics I do some watercolor and oil but my favorite subject matter is Marine Art and wildlife. I do love the paintings and working big but I also do sculpture and a jewelry line and apparel… I love it all!!

Where do you find inspiration?

Well, it’s obvious that I find my inspiration everywhere… Growing up on a shrimp boat and have a fishing family you can see real quick where it stems from… I shoot all my own underwater photography, scuba diving and fishing professionally. My whole life definitely puts me in the environment to see the paintings!

What would you do with $25,000?

Wow, what would I do with the 25K? Would definitely reinvest it back into my. Art .. there is some different equipment that I need to continue to pursue the sculpture and jewelry side, as well as big canvases and art supplies for sure!
