Atlanta Custom Commissions, Colored Pencil Paintings, and Drawings
"Art is the mythical life line uncoiling beauty fashioned by heroes from a primordial past.."
Commission Artwork
So far, most of my commissions have come from reference photographs supplied by my patrons. I am skilled at creating beautiful pictures from new and old photos of varying quality. My top priority is to complete your custom commissions like priceless phonograph records in a digital world.
My Art History
As a boy, I was a bit obsessed with drawing. My main themes were dinosaurs, religious figures, and cartoons. While drawing, I lost all sense of time. It was and is very much like the feeling of the same name described in one of my favorite books, Flow, written by Miahly Csikszentmihalyi.

I tried to take a screenshot, a continuous screenshot of the harassment, fear tactic message that was filled with mistakes that they sent to me
Messages like this one came to me all night last night and all day today I must have at least 10 to 15 of them and every one of them sounded urgent like if I didn’t do something my account will be closed in 24 hours. It was maddening because they couldn’t tell me what was wrong. They would tell me to go to ask for a review and that processwas a dead end. It was awful.
WEDDING KISS – This is a high-quality Giclee Print of a Commission I did for Aimee Welton who gifted the original to Eric Dixon on their Wedding Anniversary. The setting is the Chatahoochee National Park which I made every effort to render faithfully. I did this in Colored Pencil on 25” by 19” Arches 300 LB Watercolor Paper which is the best paper I’ve worked on….. neck and neck with Wallis Archival Sanded Paper. Aimee I miss you very much!
