Discover Original Art

Live with a blank, empty wall? Never! That is not for me! I have had a passion for collecting art from a very early age! When I was really young, I would cut the back cover off my parents' Reader's Digest as it usually was a copy of a work of art. My closet door was plastered with the pictures!
Eventually I tried to create my own artwork! My talent was and is nonexistent. But I met a wonderful artist by the name of Brother Paul from St. Leo's College in Florida. I bought my first original art from Brother Paul and still have a small collection of his works.
From there it was just fate! My walls are now covered with art. Whenever I move I make sure that each painting is wrapped carefully. Now I live in a condo and have limited wall space. Does that stop me? Never! I love fine art. I collect fine art. I live with fine art!
