Artist`s Statement:"Painting the beauty of nature and of the human spirit, is what I strive for.
My passion for painting may be driven by the thrill of a turbulent towering thunderhead before a storm; or by the soft silken skin tones of a child's face. I try to speak of this emotional response to nature's beauty through the painted word. Paint what you love- I always do."
