“If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere.” ― Vincent van Gogh 

“Following the traditional “En Plein Air” Impressionism approach, I paint both on-location and in my studio. What I try to portray in my work is not only nature itself, it is the extraordinary variety of nature’s light, moods, and moments that touches me. The spontaneity of watercolor and the movements of my brushstrokes are the perfect pair for my very personal visual  expressions.”

“Paint like your life depends on it. Paint with authority, because it’s always interesting to see what comes from that.”

“Painting is a calling for me. It is a longing for those moments when the poetry happens when a sunbeam caresses a snowbank, peeks into a glade, or spills diamonds across the sea. I’m compelled by something deep in me to seize that energy and to express it as paint on canvas…my reward is to have the viewer linger, to understand, to share as the canvas evokes and conveys a glimmer of that sublime natural beauty all around us.”
