Rootman. A name earned on the football field and embraced as an artist. He explores its significance through his paintings with vibrant colors, bold subjects, and honest perspectives.
Rootman. A self-taught native Floridian, painting since he was a child and had dreams of becoming the next Leonardo DaVinci. His art reflects his obsession with life’s mysteries and discoveries while exploring a variety of artistic styles.
The images in my paintings are naturally occurring designs that stimulate creative and spritual forces. They reflect the beauty awaiting discovery within ourselves.
