I love painting by rosco

Being raised in a small rural town, surrounded with trees and clean fresh sparkling creeks and springs, it was a natural inspirational setting for an aspiring artist. I remembered the fishing trips with my father when we waded the streams in the fall with all the splendor of colored leaves washing about our feet. I have painted those memories many times and I guess I am never happier than when I face a chalk white canvas and fill it with the brilliant colors of those memories. For painting to me.... takes me home again."
