"Life is a Journey - Not a Destination" I started to discover Art at a very young age. When I was a child people would tell me an Apple is "Red". When I looked at the apple I saw Red, Yellow, Brown, Gold, Green. To this day I try to look at objects with a different perspective. There is always more than meets the eye unless you are really looking.
I have always lived in Maine. What a perfect State to live in for artistic inspiration ! The Ocean, The Landscapes, The Wild Life, What more could an Artist ask for !
I have always created Art as long as I can remember but here are some of my "Careers" from the past that might help to tell my personality.
Marble & Granite Countertops : Fabrication & Install - Bridge Construction : Laborer / Welder - Self Employed : Tile & Glass Block Install - Roofing & Siding : Laborer - Currently : Kitchen & Bath Designer and Making my way to Full TIme Artist
As you can probably tell, I like a challenge and like to Do and Think "Outside the Box".
I have a wonderful daughter that has made my world perfect ! She has helped me retain my "inner child". As adults we are herded like sheep into ideals and forget the magic of the world because we are too busy to see it.
To my delight my daughter is gifted with the vision for creating Art. I hope she continues the Love of creating Art as much as I do.
I play with different materials creating Art. Mostly I create Paintings and Mosaics for Residential and Commercial. In the past I have welded sculptures, used recycled materials, did stained glass, pottery. I always like to try different things.
I hope you enjoy my Art as much as I enjoy creating it ! S.Begin
