My early childhood experiences were in those MASSIVE FLOWERBEDS that Denver Parks & Rec designed and maintained: GIGANTIC, ARTISTIC, MASSIVE FLOWER GARDENS! (with a childs-eye view in bright sunlight, in SUNKEN GARDENS on Speer Blvd). But since moving to Kansas, I seem to be painting more abstractly with bolder geometric or linear lines, sometimes . . .

I was fortunate enough to have FOUR years of private group art lessons in Lakewood, Colorado when my two sons were in grade school. Mrs. Jean Grout studied under Anjelo di Benedetto (1913 - 1992) She taught us extensive design principles, color theory and art history which I believe were equal to or exceeded college level courses. She also taught us to see "SPACE THROUGH PATTERNS" or "PATTERNS THROUGH SPACE" which broke my FLAT SPACE style I began at age sixteen. LUCKY, LUCKY me.

I left Colorado for New Mexico, October 2018 (during COVID!) and THEN I moved to east-central ARIZONA in April 2022 for ONLY 23 months. BUT! My FINAL move was to north-western Saint Francis, KANSAS APRIL 2024 to once again enjoy painting in a full basement studio. NO MORE MOVING! My son Chris has been my "benefactor - art patron" with extra help to survive especially for art supplies...

Now that I have a SECURE website AND a CART for sales, I am FINALLY offering 8" x 8" CANVAS PRINTS for $15.00 each, free shipping (or request any size print & I'll inquire to my local print shop). Simply choose the TITLE of the painting, make payment to PayPal (tax free) with an address and email the receipt to jerrinotjerry777@gmail.com. THANK YOU VERY MUCH . . .

December 2024, I got suspended from Instagram for posting a negative political comment. From July to November 2024, I've been juried into thirteen online art shows and six more in 2025 + an invitation to exhibit a painting in Venice, Italy. PLUS, PALM ART GALLERY "LANDSCAPES OF THE MIND 2025" (International exhibition) PLUS: SOLOS online show of 15 of my paintings at https://www.solos.art and everything is DELETED BY INSTAGRAM where I had almost 2000 followers." So be it... I REFUSE TO USE ANY SOCIAL MEDIA OR A MOBILE PHONE. . . I have email. . .

(there's no 'honesty standards' in social media and I believe in "fact checking")
