So time moved on and 18 years later I am currently enjoying a successful art career where I feel at peace with parting with my artwork. I see it as sharing my talents with others. However there are certain paintings that are tremendously personal to me and I could never imagine selling or parting with them.
I have come to the conclusion that mature artists can and should have a few pieces that are just for themselves and it should have nothing to do with maturity as an artist, in the least. So with that said - here are two examples of a couple of my favorite paintings from my Totems series. And to take it further I actually did something I never do - I took these two pieces to get custom framing - the first in my Alison Wells Collection to get custom frames - Wow!!
