Not The Tate, a gallery for paintings, photography, sculpture, & digital art.

My interest in people as individuals has a great deal to do with my paintings, as each person who sees my paintings usually responds particularly to one of them, which is fascinating to me. And once in a while someone comes along who doesn't see them at all, which is fascinating too, and a challenge.
I tend to paint pictures that I would want to live with. After all I spend a lot of time working on a painting so it comes natural to paint what I like.

I paint in oils and alkyds, sometimes over acrylic. I use canvas or hardboard as the surface. I experiment with different methods pretty freely. I work on many paintings concurrently, putting one aside when I just need to use a totally different color for awhile, or when I haven't decided what to do next, or don't have time just then to do it. Then an hour or days or even years later I pick it up again.
The dragon paintings are illustrations for a book by Daniel O'Connor. You can see more about this at http://dragonmoonrising.com.
