Began drawing Realistic, shaded Portraits at age 4 1/2. No one taught me. One Day, I just Knew How. "Emerging Artist"... Now 61 going on 62,000 (in Artist Years). "Trapped" because I'm Divergent. Marginalised. Avant-Garde. But not for Much Longer... Because I'm "Divergent". Ready Or Not... Here I Come. En Garde!!

I Created this Extract from a Digital Photo I made of Light Reflecting off of my "Magic Mirror". A "Peculiar" small, metallic, curved, irregularly-shaped dish. Hand-Crafted(?) of some sort of Shiny Metal. Chrome I think. Which I Chanced To Find at a Local Yard Sale that I Decided To Explore on a "Whim". Paid all of $2 for it. Worth it's weight in gold, and So Much More, as far as I'm concerned. Because It Produces the Most Interesting and Unpredictable Reflections. That don't always have a Discernible Source. Often Produces Archetypal Imagery of Some Sort. Hidden Within the Abstract Reflections. that can only Be Seen After I "Extract" Them. One of my Most Cherished Artistic "Toys" I Like To "Play With".
