These are some samples of my earlier oil paintings dating back to 1976. The earlier art works were sold and a good number never had photos taken of them. The photos presented here are the only recorded ones in existence.
After a dozen oil paintings on panel, the first oil painting produced on canvas was the "Interlude of horsemen" in 1976 at the age of seventeen. After many reviews of encouragement and accolades, I regarded my oil painting skills as a gift to pursue.
