For centuries, art has been a major form of communication in most civilizations.  It has also been a useful tool in recording history of these civilizations.  My goal is to do my best to proliferate artwork as a beautiful and useful tool for future civilizations.  Vivid color is my favorite tool to recreate the memorable people, places and things that I encounter in my world.  My objective is to encourage people to enjoy creative arts and to make them a part of life.
