Description
I generally use my still or video camera to capture moments that have artistic potential. Using these photos as a basic start to my paintings allows me the base point and freedom to completely transform it into a new and different artistic expression. I paint by hand in layers to add various textural qualities to the painting. I set my own color palettes, and use various electronic brushes to create that dramatic final statement that point and shoot reference photographs rarely have. I have spent the last three years developing a unique painterly style that I believe is akin to the more traditional mediums we all have grown to know and love_________________________________________________________________________________
Please note: A portion of my proceeds will be donated to The Joy and Hope Of Haiti, an organization that has been instrumental in providing a better life for Haitian children for well over a decade. I have been back to Haiti several times over the last few years. It is rich in culture and in so many other ways but still remains one of the poorest countries in the western hemisphere.

I love this painting! The eyes are outstanding. It will be hanging above our newly remodeled fireplace mantel so my friends can enjoy it as much as I do.

Thank you Sharyn, I have met many wonderful people like yourself thru Bob's artwork. Although he is no longer with us his artwork will live on. I know he is probably painting in heaven.

To all who have commented on Bob's artwork I Thank you on his behalf, even the gentleman who has no use for Bob's cliche attempt at art. I do this on my husbands behalf because Bob passed away 7 months ago and is unable to thank you himself. But even in death his artwork touches MOST people. Carolyn Salo

Wonder if David feels better now that he has insulted Bob Salo. Sure he can withstand the barb. And do you feel better, David, why not just leave it alone.

Bob, I haven`t the words to tell you how deeply this touches me. This is such a precious child, and you captured this SOOOOO BEAUTIFULLY. Congrats on sale.
