My work consists of oil painting on stretched canvas applied with brush and palette knife. Traditional additives and thinners are used in the paint mixing and application process and all work is done without the help of an assistant.

Influenced by the Impressionist and Expressionist movements, as well as my experience as an illustrator and designer, the subject matter of my

work is largely derived from still life and personal photographs along with the occasional painting created without visual reference.





Originally from central Oklahoma, Roger has traveled extensively including living in both England and Australia. His work experience is quite diverse including print and web design, illustration, custom furniture, teaching, photography, his comic "Pulp", and most recently software design yet tends to stay within the creative realm.

Roger has completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Oklahoma State University and began his Master of Fine Arts studies in 2004 at Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, Australia.

His future plans include the completion of his MFA locally and returning to collegiate art instruction as well as excessive amounts of traveling.
