About Me

My photo
I began drawing and painting at a very young age and knew early on that I would choose art for my life. I achieved success early on in high school and college in the arts, but after college, I felt compelled to a career in ministry and have spent many fulfilling years helping others find their purpose in life. Through the years, I continued to paint mostly for enjoyment and as an outlet, but in 2007, I realized that an important part of my own life-purpose was creating and painting. The internet, which of course was not available 25 years ago, is such a useful tool for artist, opening doors and providing exposure that would otherwise not be possible. With this new opportunity, I have been pursuing painting and marketing my art whole heartily, usually painting on a daily basis. I live in Tucson, love to jeep, love to paint and study art, and my paintings are often inspired from some remote mountain location in the high desert.

What is an ACEO?


Art Cards Editions and Original are miniature works of art about the same size as modern baseball cards and thin enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets. I have also seen frames to fit at every art store. These cards have one main rule - they are 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches - the size of a trading card.
Cards are sold either as originals or editions. Make sure you know which you are buying. This one is an original. Artists from all over the world are creating, and now selling these tiny art pieces and it seems like a good way to have a collection of art on a budget. I use them as a quick study for working out values and composition for larger pieces. I try to do a few a month so keep watching for them if you are interested. This Painting is SOLD
