Alcoholic Outsider Artist

My pictures are confused, abrupt, adamant, honest and entirely lacking in foresight. They are born from an argument between life's experiences, subconscious impulses and my own muddled aesthetic preferences; this dialogue is strained but ongoing. They are made possible only by the depth of my illness and the gift of my sobriety. I have accepted both graciously. They are, individually and as a group, an unwitting self-portrait.

Common Drunk

I am 55. I live in a tiny, art-filled place in south Texas. I am a recovering drunk. My program is old school, Big Book thumpin, 12 steppin, meeting goin, people helpin. Your program is yours, just get one when you are ready. With my art, I try to illustrate what it was like, what happened and what it is like now. Please let me know if any of it resonates with you.
