The worst part about majoring in art at the university level was always hearing about how my art was too representational. Actually a few of my instructors flat out said that cartooning wasn't REAL ART. I think that is one of the main reasons I have developed such a personal style. I imagine you may have figured out that I'm not very good at being told, or lead, or convinced. I, myself, have never decided if that is a good thing or not.

Your paintings are unique yet similar!

A truly nice presentation. One can feel and absorb.

I don't mind at all, it is part of my life. I am really lucky that it's only my leg and I know it. The wreck happened in 1983 so I've had plenty of time to adjust.,

Re:

Yes, I am an amputee, lost the leg to a long running infection. When I got my leg cut off I swore I'd make a wooden peg for halloween  - there it is! And yes Val is quite the savage. He knows more about Norse mythology and Paganism than most adults.

I love the Oregon coast with all of its craggy cliffs, foggy weather, and fog horns sounding, salmon fishing, and good oyster stew on a damp and chilly day.

I hate to be crass and ask but I must.  Do you really only have only one leg or is that some kind of trick costume?  Darling child.  He even looks fierce.  You must have told him Viking stories.
