I grew up on a small farm
on a gravel road. When you live five miles from town, you never
hang out and get in trouble. Unlike most boys, I was forced to entertain
myself and be creative. It helped my art in many ways. The farm
sales and odd junk we accumulated opened my mind to techniques and
subject matter and what I considered “art”. “Lou's
Got the Flu” and “Cellar Door” for instance have
found farm objects in the composition. I draw from the wild stories
of my family's lives for inspiration and subject matter that no
one else would understand or even believe. I paint what and how
I feel. How can I think about what is hot or fresh when
I don't care? That makes me original, and since my paintings are
like a shaved-ham slice of my brain and soul, it takes it to a new
level never seen. It may be
part Picasso, Basquiat, or Rauschenberg, with flair of Rasputin
or Hong Kong Phooey! I started my work before I saw the works of
Basquiat or Rauschenberg. And when I saw theirs I didn't feel like a copycat,
but I felt relieved that I wasn't insane, somehow
justified. I use the canvas like a diary filled with
stories, friends, and even lists of stuff “to do”.
I preserve memories, big and little.
