“Most subjects I paint are everyday places, that with the right light, become magical. The intimacy which develops between artist and nature can not be expressed any other way. The relationship between artist and nature is like any other relationship. It takes time to nurture. The artist observes, getting to know the surrounding environment and eventually becomes an instrument of nature; representing the beauty, the light and effects as interpreted through the artist’s eyes.”

“It’s not always easy for me to define exactly what inspires me when choosing a subject for a painting. All I know is that every now and then I stumble upon something that visually excites me and gives me a pleasant sense of urgency to paint it before something changes.”

“My intent is to express the intrinsic truth and beauty of my subject. To reveal the power or presence of spirit in a place or person. I am inspired by what I feel and by what I see…They reflect one another.”
