Art from the spirit. Abstract expressionism in a child like manner. Drawing and painting to reveal the line and form in nature.

Some of my 9"x12" mixed media collage

I never understood why anyone would purchase prints, copies or photos of art work when they can own an original by a living artist. It might require a little research in finding artists on line but they are out there. Good original art under $500.00. Many pieces for under $300.00.The new safe, reliable way to view and purchase art is on the web. With many on-line galleries and more auctions coming all the time it's the most convenient way to collect. View some of my work at drawinghermit.com IIf you are not pleased with the purchase I refund the entire cost including shipping. Try that at a traditional gallery.

The most satisfaction I get from my art is the communication I get from collectors. It's always great to hear their viewpoints on the work, either critical or complimentary. I love to discuss and debate the world of art, especially from non artists who might have a difficult time inderstanding the contemporary ideas and thoughts that go into work.

My abstract drawings/paintings can be viewed at drawinghermit.com I sell a few pieces every week at unbelievably low prices, on ebay auction under the names drawinghermit and paintingsole. My art work is sort of representational, sort of abstract and everything in between. I have been compared to Cy Twombly in my larger canvas work to Miro in my smaller drawing collages. I paint and draw every day. Nothing is pre-planned, I let the spirit of the work guide me. My biography and reviews can be viewed on my web site.
