Artist Statement:
"The visual arts cannot be
translated into a spoken
language. Art is a language
in and unto itself."
"I believe art standards of
quality must not be allowed to
be set by institutions, be
they academic or avant-garde.
Only the individual has that
sacred right."
“My interest in art started at
a very early age. I was
inspired by Degas to try my
hand at nudes at the early age
of 12. My fascination with
femininity and the female form
has stayed with me all my
life. Perhaps deepened by the
fact that I had six daughters.
Since my retirement from
commercial art in 1990, I have
devoted my life to my serious
art. I have always kept the
two very separate and grabbed
every moment I could for the
art that was not just
personal, but gave meaning to
my life.”
“The only time there was
perhaps a blending of the two
(commercial and fine art) was
during the time I was ask to
do some paintings for an
upcoming made for TV film. I
won an Emmy nomination for my
work for Title Paintings in
Zeigfield: The Man and his
Women, in 1978.”

Your painting of Cyrus Branham is beautiful. He is my ancester as well. My mother, Martha Boyd Zillioux's great grandfather was James Branham, brother of Cyrus. She has a copy of the photo of Cyrus that you have replicated on canvas, framed and in her dining room. (Martha lives in Brevard, North Carolina.)
Best,
