Artist Statement
My
paintings
are the expression of a chosen moment in time. The paintings
elicit feelings of warmth, cheerfulness and comfort, also reflecting
the beauty and complexity of what I observed and felt about those
moments. Painting with pure pigment is an important aspect of
those chosen moments.
Capturing
an
effect is capturing the emotion of a place, recognition, and a feeling
that one can identify with what the artist was trying to record. To
make you see what I have seen is part of my objective; but to
have you feel what I have felt is the ultimate goal.
