i am prolific, but picasso is still going to kick my ass in lifetime pieces. i paint in acrylics because im impatient. i usually work on 10 or 12 paintings at once. i dont paint as much as i want, because i have a full time job and 4 incredible daughters. i want a solo show in new york. i paint girls (obviously) for a lot of different reasons. mainly i guess its because i am one.

i have too many interests to name. but for this myspace, my interest is making art, meeting artists, showing my work, and hoping someone will notice it and put it in a gallery, or better yet, buy it. that rules. i thank god for color. i love it.
yes, i do commissions. if you are interested in that, let me know. for portraiture,i work from photographs and appreciate being given a lot of artistic license. prices vary by size, usually starting at about $400-$500.

I'd like to meet:

other artists, people who like my art. if you like my art, friend request me! I am always interested in more opportunities to show my work so if youre a gallery or a curator, hook a sister up. ill appreciate it.
my top friends are just some artists i really think are great. oh and me. and my moms. :)
Suz painted this picture of me-i love it!

heads up to fake myspacers-
new friends are cool. sharing art is cool. leaving comments about how you make money at home or how neat your naked webcam is? not cool. post that crap in my comments and i delete you immediately. fair warning.

Music:

an eclectic mix, to say the least

Books:

congratulations to GRACE CHURCH who won this painting!

Heroes:

jesus.
people who arent jerks. people who bathe.
i am influenced by folk art of all kinds, from all places & untrained artists. my favorite artists are kahlo, klimt, modigliani, lempicka, chagall, klee, miro, rivera, and all iconographers. most of my inspiration comes from art, and my heart.
