Artist for Hire: One picture is worth a thousand words.
Each brush stroke on a blank canvas helps show the world through an artist's eyes. Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time. At a youthful age, I discovered comic book characters that grew up alongside me. I've a strong liking for the classic action / adventure heroes, who protects good from the evil schemes of villainy. I owe a debt to the pulp heroes of a bygone era including the Shadow and the Lone Ranger. It was the appeal of strikingly rendered graphic images in book fiction such as The Three Musketeers, Tarzan, Sherlock Holmes titles and many others had an immediate and pleasurable visual influence. I take time out reminscing about the characters of the past. There are many illustrations seen and the stories are briskly told that often add new insight to familiar tales.
Art comes in all shapes, sizes and colors - you know it's good if you can't stop staring!
So I invite you to share these deviations with a friend and fans of all ages.
