Javan, a tiger portrait in oils

"Javan" is a tiger portrait painted in oils on an 8" x 10" art panel (board). He is named "Javan" in memory of the tigers of Java, near Bali, where they are extinct. It is sad that over the years several breeds of tigers are no longer upon the earth where God intended them to live and roam freely. I could find only a few photos of Javan tigers on the web. It is heart breaking that so many animals are extinct, or becoming extinct because of poachers, poisons, or their habitat has been destroyed.

"Ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind."
Job 12:7-10

About Me

As a young child, I always had a deep desire to draw and paint. All throughout elementary and high school I excelled in all of my art classes. Prompted by my high school art teacher,I attended our local Fine Arts Academy, and later college with a focus in art and art history. I have been blessed to be able to travel,visiting many art museums,including DC,NYC, and Paris,France. My work has been purchased by collectors all across the USA, and I am super pleased when my buyers tell me my work always looks better in person!

Although I refer to myself mainly as a self taught artist; over the course of many years I have taken private lessons and workshops from several talented artists in LA, TX, and AL.

I have worked with charcoal, graphite and colored pencils, pen and ink, and pastels, although preferring portrait studies in oils and acrylics. Being part Native American Indian, my heart is set on painting and learning as much as I can about these interesting people,their rich culture,and custom of using vibrant colors. I enjoy painting with heavy impasto,creating abstracts,and collages, that seem to give my paint brushes the freedom to pull me toward each new creation. My work is probably the most relaxing part of my life, and I am so glad to be back doing what I love! I believe a painting is in everything around us. We just have to look for what is truly there!
