My site to help promote my spontaneously painted ART. This battle sadly only too frequently is lost! Thus indulging in these beautiful and passionate art forms.

I try to portray the hidden demons within show business personalities.The battle they daily fight against them in their work and private lives. Many,”The strong ones” survive,but somehow lack the the intensity of those who lose. Without the troubled dark side,the music is somewhat empty and less effective,as if somehow,we all need to hear and feel this suffering when we listen to their music and

watch their performances. The materials things in life although possessed by these people fail to please them and seem to be unimportant or satisfying and cannot save them from the ultimate price they pay for greatness. I concentrate on the face alone as this is the only unique image we all posess the reflects our personalities and character and to me in portraiture every thing else is irrelevant! This character and personality, I feel, I convey onto my canvases. I dedicate these portraits to all those who lost the battle. Elvis,Amy Winehouse,Michael Jackson,Jimi Hendrix,Janice Joplin,Marilyn Munroe,Dylan Thomas,Whitney Houston……………..The list is endless. I hope you enjoy my work.
