Galloway, OH
Some 20 years after a violent crime in 2001 blinded me totally, I began to put brush and pigment to canvas.
I invite you to browse through these paintings. Please allow yourself to be touched, moved and inspired as you consider what life is like from a blind perspective.
Through these paintings, I seek to provide you with a rich, compelling and evocative glimpse into the world of someone who refuses to bow to the whims of fate, and who – in his own unique way – still sees the world around him.
Welcome to my world!
Note: all paintings are acrylic on canvas. Dimensions are typically 18 x 24 inches and may vary in layout.
