O' Mista' Whadda' Wata' Bug! by W.O. Wainwright

And while he has worked with a number of different mediums in this time, today he prefers to work with acrylics and oils on canvas. As a self-taught commissioned artist his life’s work covers a span of over 40 years. His latest title, 'Little Carly: The American White Pelican' was recently published in e-book format and may be downloaded at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other distributors under the pseudonym W. As an author/illustrator, he self-published his first children’s book in 2006, entitled “The Adventures of Joey Zee.” His second children’s title “O’ Mista’ Whadda’ Wata’ Bug” was published in 2009.

These experiences later inspired him to pursue writing as well as the visual arts. While attending public school there, he was also exposed to the power of books and the written word. His interest in the visual arts developed early when he attempted to duplicate a drawing which his brother had bought home as a school assignment. The artist/author was born in rural, North Carolina.
