Artist Statement Art has always been an integral part of my life, from my earliest memories of childhood i was always painting/creating artwork in some form or fashion.My artwork tends to truly explain how i view life, it has always brought a calm or inner peace that nothing else in life could give me.My education in art(concentrated in graphic design) was helpful, but the fine art instruction was much more beneficial from a creative standpoint.The work i have brought to imagekind is a culmination of the past couple of years as i had taken a 20+ year hiatus from painting due to work/family obligations.I have been able to let myself go creatively...and my use of color is much stronger than that of earlier years. As you will see much of a New Orleans flair is in the comedy/tragedy an fleur de lis work as being a native of south Lousiana it is only natural that i would bring some of the local flavor to the table.....My work with the female nude figure has steadily improved....I hope you enjoy, Thanks, Alan Comardelle
