 I recently sat down with the nice folks at DesignTies for a one-on-one interview. Here are a few questions and answers but please click on the link below to get the whole story. I think it's worth it !!!
How did you get started with painting?
I
was painting when I was very young, but never did anything for years
until my wife started buying art online. When the first couple of
pieces arrived, I told her I could do this kind of stuff and she 
laughed at me. That's all it took. One night while she was at work, I
went out and purchased all the necessary material and painted what I
consider the first original Matt LeBlanc. I pulled a little prank on
her by taking a picture of the painting and placing it in an eBay
template and showing it to her. I told her I had found a great painting
and that we should buy it. She responded by saying that it was a good
idea. The rest is history!!
How do you achieve such great texture in your paintings?
I
love texture. I paint with pallet knives and use heavy body paint,
which has a very thick buttery consistency. I also use an extra-wide
brush to create different effects with the paint.
