Artist Statement:
I try my best to create atmosphere in my paintings, to convey subtle variations in light effects on the landscape. This is the measure of success in my opinion. The texture and tonal depth achieved with oils, has given me the ability to convey what I like best in painting. Working with watercolour and acrylic media in my early efforts, helped me to evolve.
Subject matter for me is a compilation from figurative studies, to outdoor still life, anything with dramatic lighting. Of course towering cumulus always fascinates.
I've attempted to capture the genius strokes of artists like John Singer Sargent and Gerhardt Richter, tempered with admiration for William Merritt Chase. Not an easy task.
