I have been a traditional painter for 40+ years, mostly as a hobbyist. In recent months, I started exploring digital painting to see what I could create with this new medium. My goal is to gain skills and craftsmanship during this new journey. My typical style is to use black or dark backgrounds to accentuate lights, dark, and to create contrast. Black backgrounds really make colors "pop". I tend to focus on common every-day items in my work to tell stories, provoke thought, imagination, or emotion. Please enjoy my work...
