(Hint) the person in the drawing to the right is not Pop. It is one of a series that I am working on tentatively titled Western Icons. This drawing is entitled Giving Him what He Wants.

Pop is, rather, a follower of Jesus Christ, a husband, father, grandfather, teacher of things, artist, writer, and patriotic citizen of the United States of America, who has spent most of his life drawing, painting, and creating visual objects. I have a BFA in studio art with a concentration in ceramics, and an MA in Contemporary Art History, theory, and Criticism. I also teach art at two local universities, one my alma mater as a matter of fact.

This website is my way of reaching out to people beyond the physical sphere, in the hopes of promoting dialogue, exploring diversity of thought, and reaching a unity of spirit in our culture. One nation, under God. On this site there are art galleries, two Pop Talks… blogs, links to the Pop’s Place Studio YouTube channel as well as relevant external content, and various other assortments of things that may be added as, Lord willing, the days come.

Thank you so much for checking out Pop’s Place Studio, and as always,

Godspeed
