My Inspirations

 

Most of my schooling has been walking through museum halls, studying from catalogs and books.  While working a technical vocation by day, my further education was through painting amongst peers and teachers at evening workshops.  The following are just a few classical artists whose works have inspired me in my craft.

  • Kaethe Kolwitz

  • Bo Bartlett

  • Henry Ossawa Tanner

  • Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

  • Vincent Van Gogh

  • Sidney Goodman

  • Diego Rivera  

  • American Ash Can school

Special thanks to Skip Cantwell for years of encouragement and feedback.
