I want to make it clear that I am an Outsider artist. I have no formal training in any area of the arts and have no affiliation with those who do. My art is my art and comes in a myriad of shapes, sizes, and forms.

Much of my art originates from photos I have taken in my 50 years of traveling across America.

MyArtsySide is broken into four fundemental categories:

My Minds Eye(MME) – which is taking my lifetime photo portfolio and often morphing the images to one degree or another into what I see in my mind’s eye.

Digital Doodles (DD) – I have been doodling all my life. Like most of us it was pretty much driven out of me in my youth. Digital Doodles, which you see here, are made with digital tools, But no AI was used in their creation.

Mosaic of Life (MOL) – This was the first major project in creating my artsy side. It presently contains over 180 pictures and stories about my life and the challenges I have encountered.

Line Art (LA) – This is a new category in 2026. It will be basically a simplified digital pen & ink type thing.
