A good artist's work cannot be reproduced by another artist. It always surprises me to find artists whose work I can imitate quite easily - not that I would want to, respect for the artist understood.  I am not convinced of the value of such art work.  My artworks cannot be reproduced. I cannot even reproduce them myself!  When I am asked how I created a particular work, I am unable to tell - it  just "comes out of me", inspired by the moment, a once-in-a-lifetime experience!  There are times when an artwork doesn't go as planned, leaving me visibly disappointed, but invariably, inspiration comes along and the brush moves in a different way, the mind sees something totally different, and the resulting artwork becomes a happy surprise, even to me!  I have no doubt that Something of a higher nature is at work at these times, and I am grateful.

When you purchase my art, you can be assured of its originality and subsequent value.  I offer reproductions of many of my works for those whose budget does not allow for the higher-priced originals. But please remember, that these are just "pretty faces" with no soul, while original fine art contains the very soul of the artist.  "If something is worth doing at all, it is worth doing well!"  If it's worth buying, it's worth investing in something of value.  Original art appreciates: It's an excellent investment.
