Experimenting with art from an early age, I have been a
multimedia artist working with
various materials for most of my life. However, due to an
un-yielding passion I intentionally continue to work in contrast with
progress struggling to preserve the
use of traditional methods and materials when painting art.
While following modern methods using both old and new
materials, it had become aware to me through my own
struggles to locate valid information that some ancient painting
processes deserving of more reverence and if not
collectively publicized may become driven to
extinction. It is my belief that these resources should
remain available to anyone (including those of limited
means) with sincere interest in creating art.

Thus was
born
"Ask Maurice- An Artist Reference to Painting".

resource and forum for current and future artists. This web site was intentionally
created as a consistent expanding data base to furnish whatever
knowledge the reader would require. The drop down menu folder links to the left
outlines
the current and future publications to be available on this site. And, there
is also a site search to help you find what you are looking for. Can't

Shop for recommended titles from
the collection of books

provide recommended and "hard to find" materials from various art
suppliers specific to each painting project and to sponsor/support the expense of this site. You are

the art related links sharing
educational and manufactures' recommendations on the web.

inhibited expression."
