Hello fellow artists of the world - Born and raised in New York City during the summer, In 1951, I was exposed to everything happening around me and from around the world. Growing up with color in life all around me as a child and coloring everything and illustrating with pencils, crayons, and watercolors I had fun. Painting with all mediums as I grew older, I consider myself as a Colorist. I express this through the complexity of the subject(s) / Ideas that I'm painting using watercolours by hand, I'm a traditional artist. Presently, I use Lanaquarelle 140 lb. acid-free fine grain cold pressed paper and a variety of watercolour pencils and paints, inks and brushes. I had art education in high school and won a few awards, then attended NYU before going into the service. Continuosly learning art. All my originals are for sale. Thank You for viewing! - Happy painting ~ Francis of New York 紐約的弗朗西斯 Фрэнсис Нью-Йорк ニューヨークのフランシス・ न्यूयार्क के फ्रांसिस Fransiskus dari New York
