My name is Daryll Stokes though I go by my nickname, Dax. I’m a self-taught painter and my skills in painting developed more fully when I began college studies at UC Riverside towards my life-long passion for movement,music and graphic images besides discovering more about art in my years of being a choreograher/performer. My appreciation of diverse cultures, interior design, architecture, stained gass,jewelry,photography and the possibilities of found objects inspire my creations. Guess one could say that there isn’t much that I don’t find inspiration in ;-)
