As demonstrated in the Moments-of-Life gallery, my paintings are often created from photos provided by the client or taken by the artist. Every attempt is made to create custom paintings that reflect the client’s personal taste, experiences and feelings.Photographs of all possible aspects of the subject are usually scanned and transferred to the computer where they can be best utilized at my easel - using oils or acrylics.

Usually many phone calls or visits are required to install small details that often mean a lot to those associated with the scene (in spite of efforts to change me, the engineer in me comes out sometimes!) I enjoy getting to know the people and places involved in the subject matter - a process that tends to produce a warmer and more accurate painting that better reflects and represents the feeling of the subject.

All completed paintings are usually scanned and filed on CDs. This allows copies to be made for others involved (family, friends, etc.) in the subject. These copies can be printed out in almost any size on various media as desired.
