I refer to most of my work as 'interpretive realism'. I enjoy interpreting historical, social, or theological concepts painting with air.
I was first introduced to the airbrush while in training during my tour in the U.S. Air Force. Only one day was spent using the airbrush and during that day I painted the face of a man and woman with somewhat organic paint around them. That was my only experience with the airbrush at that time.
Years later I began painting murals via paint brush in San Antonio, Texas. It wasn't long before I began exploring new ways to apply paint. I thought if I could thin acrylic paint enough to flow through an airbrush it might have a more unique look.
I bought a Binks made Wren, 'the Elvis of airbrushes', rented a compressor and began to paint. I had an immediate connection. The image I had in mind was now connecting my soul to air born paint being sprayed on to the canvas. I now realized I could paint shading and highlighting like I had never been able to do with a brush. WOW!
Ever since that first experience with the airbrush the look I get using a freehand style has become my signature look for my murals and paintings.
All that said, before anyone or anything in my life comes 'The Way, The Truth, The Life...Jesus Christ.' For God is a reality, not a religion.
