My work tends to be both romantic and classical in nature and approach. I am interested in the universal statement. My work tends to be abstracted from nature. It deals with the general rather than the particular. Work is prompted by the beauty in a universe created by God. Every weed or rock is worthy of artistic consideration. I try not only to examine the nature of things but to give them some uplifting meaning. It is important to develop independence in style and approach. It is important to be a normal, useful individual. Most success is sweat and hard work. Patience, be optimistic. An artist must be his own toughest critic.

The mission of the South Carolina Arts Commission is to promote access to the arts and support the cultivation of creativity in South Carolina. We envision a South Carolina where the arts are valued and all people benefit from a variety of creative experiences.

A state agency created by the South Carolina General Assembly in 1967, the SCAC works to increase public participation in the arts through grants, direct programs, staff assistance and partnerships in artist development, arts industry, arts learning, creative placemaking, and folklife and traditional arts. Headquartered in Columbia, S.C., the SCAC is funded by the state of South Carolina, by the federal government through the National Endowment for the Arts, and other sources.
