    Southern Outsider Artist "BLACKTOP" grew up in
    Alabama, but now lives in Georgia.  He is a self-taught artist who
    began his art as a way to express the visions and dreams he has
    experienced growing up in the South. Most of his paintings start with a
    base of "black tar" on wood, then comes the colors (hence the name
    "Blacktop").  His paintings have stories to tell which reflect an
    abstract rural South full of paradoxes and contrasts. He is attracting
    attention as an emerging Southern Artist to collect. His paintings can
    be found in galleries, businesses and many private collections.
