I revamped my artist's statement: 

There is a story and a reason behind every painting I do. My paintings are metaphoric, some are more obvious than others, yet they all depict the story behind them.

I call myself an expressionist because that is the movement that I identify with, yet I do not adhere to any art movement I paint in a style that comes naturally to me which might be called expressionistic realism.

I do not do classical, conventional academic paintings. It is hoped that anyone looking for unconventional art, including a portrait commission will find interest in my work.
