I am an artist that works and paints strictly out of my own home. I raise rabbits, and pigeons. I also have two cats, a cockatiel, a Quaker parrot, and some fish.
I can paint commissioned pet portraits upon request (see ebay store, or EBSQ profile for more details). I have shown my art all over my county in the past, including our county fair. I also show at the St. Joe County, and hillsdale county fairs every year.
A lot of my work is painted to compete and show. I have won several best in shows, and honorable mentions from showing at the county fairs.
I am also a member of the Branch County art guild, a large group of artists in the southern part of Michigan that is dedicated to showing and promoting original works of art. I have exhibited my art through them at the tibbitts opera house, and various other locations in the past. Our group even painted a mural in downtown Coldwater MI, of which I was very actively involved in.
I am also EBSQ certifified and participate in alot of their online art shows.
Each of my paintings comes with its own EBSQ certificate of authenticity, signed by me.
