Chaplin (2013) Malerei von Ferrand

I've loved art ever since I was a child, I remember the joy of soggy clay on my hands, of sticky paint on my fingers. I remember being told that flowers don't grow that color and asking why. And that artist should be serious and act mature and again asking WHY?. I have always subscribed to the ancient belief that all things have a soul and energy force. To me every rock, tree, drop of rain, animal and insect are as important to existence as humans. And so I paint , I see so many things that call to me , it's like a whispering on the wind from some mythical beast I can't resist. I  strive to capture that emotional essence. That's it , I'm hooked. I am forever changing as are my subjects, I hear in color and see the unseen. I am blessed with the ability to see what most out grow or put aside because 'it is time to grow up'.
I taught at the College of Micronesia in the Pacific & have been involved in the art world in many different incarnations. I chaired the Governor of Pohnpei FSM Endowment of the Arts Program. Among my most notable commissions are portraits for the first President of Micronesia Tosiwo Nakayama , first Governor of Pohnpei Leo Falcam & Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, as well as works in private collections including the Forbes.
My works have sold throughout the Pacific Islands of Hawaii, Guam, the Republic of Palau, Truk, Pohnpei, Yap, The Marshalls and Japan was well as D.C., California, New York and Connecticut. I have recently authored and illustrated several children's books, which currently is my latest incarnation.
