This piece was drawn in charcoal, pastel, and pen. When beginning a portrait of an animal, I always like to start with some stories or an idea of the pet's personality. Typically I like to find that personality in the eyes, but this portrait was perfect with him entirely drained after some serious play time. Dog's are especially interesting as each breed has very unique characteristics in their fur. Here, I attempt to bring about the wiry texture of this Pointing Griffon. Rarely is that an easy task, but always worth the effort that is put in. This was a gift for a friend. Most of my pet portraits are commissions, of which I do not sale any prints. Please check my website for additional portraits and information on commissioning a portrait.

I spend a great deal of time exploring color; it’s subjective nature, it’s ability to arouse feelings in the subconscious, and the way it creates depth in two dimensional space. Shades and tone play a vital role in my images, giving emphasis to a certain detail, creating space between two elements, or adding a sense of gravity or levitation. I often think of how children see the world as I paint; simple shapes, bright, new colors, and a knowledge of themselves that often gets lost as they age. As a kid I knew my place in the world and didn’t care about my place in history. I’d like the simplicity of that life back. I love old things…. from my 17 year old dog to my 51 year old truck, from jazz to boxing; the ingrained narrative of things that have withstood time. I don’t buy into the concern for celebrity that plagues the modern digital age. I long for the days when people spent more time on porches with neighbors and less time in front of screens. I graduated with a degree in art from The University of Georgia and spent years chasing other careers; from sales to firefighting. Fourteen years later, after a serious injury, I found myself picking up art again. I now create art full time, and live in Chattanooga, TN with my wife and a herd of elderly animals.
