about:

"My name's Randal, and I am an artist."
In 2004, around the time I turned 30, I started introducing myself with that. I'd met and been deeply inspired by the great visionary artist Alex Grey, quit the factory job, and began a nearly year-long road trip exploring life and the country where I was born in an old pick-up truck named Suzie-Q.
The exploration continues.

Since then I've taught myself to paint (sorta) and continue to be amazed, humbled, inspired, and blessed with art as the journey. I try to paint for 10 hours every day. Sometimes I do.
Life seems to be composed of a truly overwhelming grid of gifts; each of which increases in detail and elegance the closer we look, in whatever direction we choose to look. The only appropriate response to these gifts appears to be gratitude. I try to make art about this.

To the marvelous creative flow and language of the Universe, and my beautiful family of friends:
Thank you.
I love you so.
I do my best for you.
