Artist Statement:

As a painter, I am intuitively interested in the interaction of light with the environment. It is my intention to express with obsessive accuracy the natural beauty found, at times only for a fleeting moment, in our surroundings. Through my work, I hope to capture and convey the sense of overwhelming enchantment that these moments produce, sometimes with philosophical ruminations. If the viewer can sense the quality of natural beauty that enhances our lives then I will have succeeded in my efforts as an artist. Peace.
