Thanks Terry!

Glad to be taking it to the next level.  

Howdy Folks,
Some of you already know a bit about me but plenty do not.  

I am a full-time firefighter/EMT for my day job, but my motivating passion is fine art.  I am a trained painter/sculptor and earned my BFA from the University of Miami in 2007.

I have been slowly but steadily working on my art career alongside other endeavors like the fire service and pursuing goals of raising a happy and healthy family.  

My primary medium is painting and I traditionally paint large non-figuritive abstract paintings, typically in the neighborhood of 60 x 72".  I have shown my work in galleries in Miami and Tallahassee and currently have the goal to expand further.

The road to a successful career as an artist is a long journey that requires patience, inspiration, and perseverance.  

This all ties in to traditional archery because recently I have been inspired to try and blend my style of abstract painting with traditional archery and bowhunting themes.  I have some neat ideas in the works and want to start sharing these creations with the members of Tradgang.  There are few other interests/hobbies I have pursued with such fervor as trad bowhunting and I am really excited to use trad as a muse to see what creations I can come up with.  It will be a nice outlet and will no doubt help enhance my non-traditional archery themed works as well.  

Stay tuned, I will hopefully be offering up a catalog of works for the enjoyment of TG sometime before this current year is up.  Working on a group of paintings right now in my spare time.  

Art is the highest expression of the human spirit and I just want to do my part to keep folks excited about art and excited about traditional bowhunting in the 21st Century.

Glad to be part of this great place.

Chuck,
I wish you the best of luck in your art business. Hopefully you get so busy you won't have time to cruise the classifeds and some of us will get a chance at some good lefty bows.  LOL

Keep those bow reviews coming.

Good luck.
I had a really good group going... until I shot the second arrow.

My best bows are the ones someone else didn't want.

I thought for sure this thread would announce a used bow shop full of left handed bows that I can't shoot.    ;)    you are full of surprises!  Will you be posting any examples?

Thanks for all the kind words folks!

I know its a tease to not offer a preview, but with the way my painting works with the many layers of addition and subtraction, the initial and middle phases of a work can actually look radically different from the finished product.  I want to make a strong first impression and feel the finished paintings will best achieve this.  The process is a lot of fun and it's different and therapeutic to approach trad archery from an angle that doesn't involve shooting but rather internal reflections.

As it stands here is a sample of my NON- archery or bowhunting themed work.  This is a painting which sold to an individual in Texas earlier this year entitled "Paso Doble":

 

Stay tuned!  ;)
