I like to work with people's favorite photos or something they might have found on line. I work exclusively in acrylic and latex paint which is basically non-toxic, fast drying, and has a pleasant odor. A typical mural for me is 15 feet wide by 8 feet high. It takes me 5 days and this includes a few coats of a acrylic, satin varnish. I can work with almost any budget. If you can't afford the original quote I will make adjustments to the mural. Sometimes "less is more". In other words, I could eliminate a tree or two and simply give you more sky or ocean. Believe me, you won't have to re-morgage your home to pay for it!

My Biography:
Been drawing, painting and questioning things since age 5-----now I'm 59 and haven't changed all that much. I'll forever have one foot in my childhood. Why? Because there lies my imagination. I've had lots of one-man shows and participated in many group shows too.
Have traveled extensively, mostly in the USA. Lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico for nearly a decade exhibiting in several local galleries. Lived and worked with American Indians. Did lots of networking with artists and co-operative galleries. Have been, and still am, a member of dozens of music groups during the last 35 years.
There are lots of artists, musicians and poets on both sides of my family. My website: www.ReverbNation.com/DENZ will allow you to download my music for free and to take a look at my unusual musical instruments and see my uncommissioned art-----the creative stuff I do when no one is around.

My Education:
Other than occasional instructions from my oil-painting grandfather and lots of musical and aesthetic inspiration from my fiddle-playing dad and crafty mom, I am self-taught. Yes, trial and error, what works and what doesn't. In the end what affects me most affects people most too.
To educate means, "to bring forth". I have brought forth my heart & soul in my paintings and music. Does this not make me educated?
