It was 28 years ago
It was 28 years ago today that I quit my
oilfield job to pursue my dream of becoming a professional artist. I will
always remember that day. I made the decision to take that step and embrace the
risk of the unknown. My son JC was 10 months old and my wife Lynne was pregnant
with our daughter Natalie. I did not want to continue working in a job that was
mostly about security and getting a steady paycheck. I wanted to make a living
creating bronze sculptures something I had a real love and passion for. I believed
in my heart and gut that I would find a way to follow my dream and make it
work. I've been very fortunate and blessed to have been able to make a living
doing what I love and for that I am grateful. I would like to personally thank
my family, friends, and collectors who helped make my dream a reality because
no dreams is accomplished without the love and support of others. Thank you!

Making art
Art is more the product of a commitment made by ordinary people, then it is the product of unique talent possessed by only a chosen few.
