Dean Comple
I’m a lifetime artist who began creating Art at a very young age. I have recently been blessed to be able to now focus solely on Art and teaching Art, since retiring from a 40 year career as a Manager in the Airline industry. I’ve travelled all over the world in that profession and therefore had an opportunity to view Art of all types in many countries.
Now I’m living my dream life of painting and crafting in a bright and colorful fashion. I explore all types of Art in my work and want to share my love of Art with as many people as possible, especially young people that have vivid ideas and wish to discover and create Art in its full beauty. It’s truly My Honor, to be involved with “Hugs and Smiles” |
