Standing in the city's Clock Tower, one can look down at the city below. Sighisoara Romania (located in the Transylvania region of the country) is a prime example of a fortified medieval town, and one of the few remaining. Part of the city, the citadel, is considred a World Heritage Site. A building right next to the Clock Tower is the birthplace of Vlad III, Prince of Wallachia, but better known to the world as Vlad the Impaler from whom Bram Stoker based his vampire character Count Dracula. The building was being used, at the time of my visit in 2006, as a restaurant.

The Clock Tower was built in the 13th century, the city had it's beginnings at the end of the 12th century. This is a day in the life cityscape scene, shoing the hustle and bustle of the modern day set in its medieval surroundings.

Self taught, I use the computer to paint. I've always been interested in computers since I first worked on one way back in high school. And I've always had an appreciation for art, as my mother is an accomplished painter. Merging the two, what you see are the results. Digital work that looks (hopefully!) like a traditional painting. My paintings are mostly places I've been, preserving the memory and sharing them with the world. I love to travel, seeing and experiencing new things. Painting the things I see reflect the wonder I had when I first saw them. I hope that when people see my works, they think the subject matter is interesting, whether or not they like the painting. Oh..and I paint flowers too, among other...
