I am 34 years old and have been doing my art since I was 15. I was adopted when I was 8, and I live in Oregon. I have always tried to do my paintings in
my own unique way. I created my own style of painting, I call it 'painting with sticks'. I take matchsticks, paint each one individually and glue them on to a wood panel. I create my picture this way. It is very labor intensive but the result is amazing. I hope my artwork inspires people to create in their own unique way.more
