About corqmaker:

"I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose
freewill" - Neil Peart - lyricist, musician, author

I like the feeling of being free that a blank canvas
provides. I am free to create, free to play, and
sometimes free to make mistakes. For this reason, I
purposefully try to avoid having a pattern or firm
constraints when I sit down to paint. Some of the best
and most satisfying pieces I have done have come when
I have absolutely no idea what I want to lay on the
canvas. Conversely, some of my worst paintings (in my
mind) have been created while trying to follow a
pattern or sketch I have made in advance.

The paintings I create are scenes I am familiar with,
mountains, trees, ocean, farmland. Having grown up in
the northwest and living here most of my life, I am
blessed to live in an area with so much diversity and
majestic beauty.
