I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a self -taught visionary artist. Drawing and painting is my God given gift. I enjoy the experimental aspect of creating art from the ideas that course through my imagination. My art is an expression of my love and so much more. It is my communication and it may have something to say to you...who knows.

My Interests

For this space to be a place where artists and my friends can view some of my older and more recent original pieces of art(to see my art View my Pics). I draw and paint the images that come to me from life experiences and subjects that are of interest to me. I draw with graphite, prisma pastels, prisma colored pencils, crayola coloured pencils, pastel chalk pencils, and oil pastels. I paint with acrylics and watercolours. Don't steal my pics they are copy righted by my business LG images.

I'd like to meet:

People who love creating and viewing art as much as I do. Artists that have their own unique style and knowledge that can be shared to help support other artists in their endeavors.

Brian Wilson aka Christian Stone "I'll Be With You" When the night sky falls and there's no one to pick up the moon, and when the maker of the nightmare calls out from the walls of your room, and when the songs that you knew so well are all out of tune; When you stand in the shadows not knowing what's around the bend and when you hear the roar of "Thunder" afraid of the message it sends...I'll be with you until the very end...I'll be with you until the very end...

Van Gogh's "Daubigny's Garden with Black Cat"-1890 - My favorite of his thickly painted scenes-debated over as to whether or not it was his last painting. I stood before this painting in a museum for the longest, absorbing it all in and not wanting to leave from it. Girls with much to say - " I met a man on the highway he sold me junk and conversation, he was wise and dirty from the weather, I said darkness into darkness all the carnage of my journeys make it hard to be living, He said It's a long road to be forgiven" .. The Man in Black - "I keep a close watch on this heart of mine" Bob Dylan - "And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it, And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it"
