The Artist
I am a full time artist and healing from cancer. God's gift of art helps heal me. Most of the art you see is for sale and should have prices except the sketchbook pieces, if not email me. We have provided for payment by button and please read notes in red for buyers. God bless.

About the Artist
This site is to blog about art and to sell some art posted. First let me say that I was a kid when I started doing art. I give the glory to God for any and all gifts He has bestowed on me.
Over the years I have studied with such international giants as Stephen Quiller, Frank Webb, Tony Couch, Tony van Hasselt and others.
Art is an inner language that we all speak and it is a healing balm for the soul.
My greatest moment is when I produce a piece of art and another human being voices, "It took my breath away when I saw it!
God is good in the fact that I am in national and international collections as well as the state of Missouri's permanent collection. I am a juried member of 'Best of Missouri Hands' and a member of several art societies. I have had the pleasure of serving as chair for one international society.
Also I've won regional and state awards along with being published several times. My art is sold through solo shows at Universities etc, CAL gallery, and on line such as here.
My colors are what most people are drawn to along with a sense of light. Light and color are my favorite things to introduce to you. I paint a multitude of genre.
I hope you enjoy my art, tell others, and please purchase a piece for yourself.
Leave comments on what you like and what questions, if any, I can answer for you.
Thank YOU
Ricky

ART BUYERS AND COLLECTORS
Every effort is made to keep these paintings/sketches as close to original color as possible. Due to different monitors you may see it a little different than the original.
Understand that none of art has been retouched with adobe etc. except for sizing etc. to bring you the picture represented here.
All art sold here is original unless stated otherwise. I have an affection for each one as you would a loved one.
I've tried to do all sizes, types of media, and some prints so everyone can afford a piece of art.
Your patronage feeds me and others so I value you choosing one of my pieces.
Most art is without frame or mat unless stated otherwise to save on cost and shipping.
If art is not available we will do our best to mark it "SOLD" for your convenience.

Hi Ricky,
ReplyDeleteYou did a great work on the shortened perspective of the branches and the chosen pallete is very pleasant, with the values and hues applied with harmony.
Best regards,
José
