I use Archival materials 100% cotton rag acid free materials boards and papers. Using Acrylic paints I mostly use primaries. Red, Blue and yellow with Black and white to create hues values and tones and to push subjects back or pull them forward . To create highlight, shadows and bright sunlight effects. The subjects I paint are from my growning up years near the North Caradian river and traditional events that took place in my area of Oklahoma
