I'm so glad you have a DA page! I also go to FSU and have to write a report analyzing five works from an artist displayed in the the Brooks Gallery. I got to see your work when it was there, but it REALLY helps to be able to see it while writing the paper. Awesome work! :)

pixels were the driving force behind a lot of my work. I really wouldn't be making what I am today if I didn't evolve into it (starting with pixels).

And it's always good to find people in WV who are making interesting things. :-)

Thanks for watching and for your nice comment! I havenīt been painting for many years and suddenly I have to do it, find it so much fun and I think about painting all the time. Iīt happend from one day to the next. Did a drawing of a turtle I found in an antiqueshop when I was bored this Christmas and something happend. I think I can do better.., I will try!! (The one with bones is an old painting from a year at artschool here in Gothenburg.) The portrait is the first I ever done. Acrylic is new for me and I really like it, itīs kind of "fast". This is a great place, someone actually looks at my paintings..wow. All the best!
