Self Portrait

You can learn more about me, MawBear, on my website jus click the website link on the left...it's all about the art really. I'm actively developin my style, Other than that, I paint outsider/ folky art ???, who can put a definition on a style?...on found objects, old canvases people have painted on, wood, old timey various tin or galvanized stuff, ect. Not too good at this tech-no-logical stuff;;..but kinda necessary nowadays. I started paintin for real about four months ago, after hearing Mrs. Paula Deen talk about her agoraphobia. My parents were killed when I was eleven n I haven't really done much with my life because I was constantly in fear of dyin or gettin hurt n hearing her talk, hearin someone put a name ta how I felt, freed me somehow. Also, when 911 happened n I went through some abusive relationships, I just felt beat down n like why try, what's the point. Hearing Mrs. Dean, I finally decided to get out there n start doin what was in my soul. Thank you Mrs. Deen for your courage, n for helpin others like me. Since then, I've painted over 50 pieces n sold a bunch. I feel vibrant n alive now...be sureta look up Mrs. Paula Deen n hear her story, maybe it can help you too!!!

Will be attendin various festivals to show work, if you know of any you think I'd be intrested in holler at me...work usually uses type of tar substance...sometimes flashmaster, sometimes tar, acrylic, and polyurethane to get a deep affect. I'm also havin porch sales on Fridays so if ya are down this way in the Blue Ridge Mountains, holler!!!Thanks for lookin and yall come back now ya hear!!!
