In the past decade his style loosened to use a fair amount of abstract mixed with the realism of subjects laid into the canvas with a dreamlike pensive detail. This style is even carried over to many of his charcoal and graphite drawings. The most popular of subjects in his works has turned out to be ravens and crows. Nearly 100 of those pieces have sold nationwide. Born in Ohio, raised in Illinois, he now lives in Williams Bay, Wisconsin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo shipping available.
