"As a photo realism artist working vibrant transparent layers into my art paintings , it can take over a hundred hours to finish each piece of artwork. My passion is realism and I followed it through the mediums of pencil, charcoal, pastel, watercolor and oils. Reading the eyes of animals, for years, gave way to telling stories of travels-through the portraiture of beautiful and historical places visited. I hope my art is a reminder of your own story there, or, encourages you to go make one"…bj
