Interesting work. His website says he has a BA, but not what in. I’m wondering about his formal training in art and whether he considers himself to be an outsider artist. Not that it would change the quality of his work, just the context. I’m a formally trained artist, and sometimes I wish I could unlearn what I know.

Hi. I need to update my bio. I got another degree since that was written. I studied art some, but I don’t have a BFA, MFA or anything fancy.
I like to think I am an outsider artist, but I fear I may now have taken one course too many to get any outsider cred.
Thanks for checking out my website.
You have art training, can your work be seen online? I’d be interested in seeing some of what you do.
