Ever since I finger-painted on the walls as a child - I have always loved to paint. During the 80's and 90's, I owned a local sign shop in Charlotte, NC. Those were the glory days, when all of the signage was hand-painted and many times mural work was involved. Of course, computer cut vinyl copy and digital printing became the norm, however, until that inevitability hand-painted was the way to go.

I still work in graphic arts pushing a mouse instead of a brush, it is rewarding but my greatest thrill is finding time to paint 'til there ain't no more time to paint.
