Artist's Statement
"
"
I was introduced to drawing at a very young age by my grandfather, Hampton Dyches. He was a graphic artist, and loved to paint family portraits as a hobby, and best of all he was very eager to teach me (and buy art supplies!!!). I too love to draw and paint people, but not necessary in a posed portrait fashion. Capturing people enjoying the simple things in life and the beauty of nature is what my work is about. I have been blessed with some awesome art teachers in school, college and private lessons!
