Artist Statement:
I consider my talent for art
as a gift from God. my desire
is to share that gift for a
fair price with others.
Still Life
I arrange objects I've
collected on a table and draw
and paint them. Through many
complicated relationships of
form, proportions and color, I
strive towards a wholeness or
oneness. I believe this
struggle reflects the struggle
which also occurs within the
painter between the spirit and
the mind. The spirit in the
end must gain the cooperation
of the mind. The mind knows by
seeing and directing the hand,
but the value of what is known
is determined by the spirit.
The rejection and acceptance
and the changes gone through
guided by the spirit results
in the paintings. In other
words your whole being must be
involved in the act of
painting before you can
achieve a satisfactory result.
