Artist Statement:
I use a traditional
approach to creating works of
art, in charcoal, oil, and
true fresco. Portraits and
landscapes form the bulk of my
work. For me, each painting
becomes an investigation into
the nature of reality, and the
way we as human beings,
individually as well as
collectively, perceive that
reality.
Serious art demands
serious technique and an
approach steeped in tradition.
If you avoid the pitfalls of
short-cut methods, you will
reap the rewards of hardwork
and patience. John Lennon
once said, "the love you take
is equal to the love you
make." I find a similar truth
about the creation of art,
especially with the most
demanding of all graphic arts
- fresco. Buon fresco, or
"true fresco", is well suited
to meld with architecture to
create visual statements that
run the gamet from unrivaled
boldness and vitality to the
indescribably sublime. I find
the exacting requirements and
long hours of preparation of
lime, sand, mortar, and
pigment, as well as planning
the scale of the work and the
drawing, are in harmony with
my nature as an artist.
