Welcome to Payne Art and Paris Dreams

Don't ask me for a stupid "artist statement".  I don't have any goal other than to paint what I want to paint, when I want to paint it, and how I want to paint it.  

Don't ask me what my art means.  That's for YOU to decide!  Don't ask me about my process either because whatever process I have is so natural it's like breathing.  You wouldn't ask me how I breathe would you?

Don't ask me to explain what a certain piece "means".  I'll tell you it means I just wanted to paint it.  You will have to decide it's "meaning" because that is personal to you.

If you like to look at my art, then look.  If you want to buy my art, then buy it.  I will tell you that you are buying a part of my soul though.  But don't ask me to explain that either.


If you are interested in purchasing my art, please contact me 

I am proud to be the Featured Artist at Reflections Art Gallery, October 2013 and named "Most Evolved Artist"
