Statement
The paintings I make are traditionally inclined toward outdoor landscape, still life and portraiture. My primary influences are those painters who navigate their palettes to maximize the most sensitivity toward their subjects. Often, while in the moment of creating, I am cross-referencing my life experience to that of the present moment.
I am honored to have been shown in several museums, participating regularly at the Long Beach Museum of Art. Many of my paintings are part of several private collections. I teach privately and for groups and am a strong advocate for increasing the importance of recognizing the function of art in our everyday lives.
From the soil, the flower blossoms.
From the noise, the song is plucked.
