I paint because I love nature and life. I love everything that surrounds us. A perfect day for me involves nothing more than looking at a subject until its true essence reveals itself to me as the colors become vibrant and I truly “see” the subject.
I believe a painting should represent the subject and its relationship to the world— it should be a celebration of its existence in the universe in the best possible light.
