“Every artist struggles with their own self-portrait. At one time, having a portrait done was like a rite of passage, but that documentation is becoming a lost art. I thought, if there was one portrait to explain who you are, what you love, what would it be? I did the process with myself--I’m in my old Land Cruiser, with my dog Gator. I want my grandchildren and my children to have this portrait of me.”
