I am an aspiring artist working through multiple venues. I don’t have a specific venue other than to be creative. I say aspiring because I am a completely self-taught artist and always consider myself to be working toward improving my artistry and creativity in every aspect. 

I spent a long time doing other things and mostly enjoyed it but until recent years I never really had a big desire to be very creative. Over the years I have dabbled with the arts and have a decent amount of raw talent when it comes to re-creating something. 

I worked in the information technology field for almost 30 years working on and with computers in one way or another. I have a gift for reverse engineering how things work or how to do things that has kept me engaged with technology for a long time. Recently I decided to stop dabbling in the things I love to do and start actually focusing on being creative. 

I am also a bit scattered if I don’t focus so I decided to focus on painting and writing. I still dabble in other creative pursuits such as making both tabletop and computer games as well as a bit of woodworking now and then.
