Artist Statement:
Nudes and Abstracts are my
focus now, after being a
schitzophrenic artist for 30
years(not literally), in that
one minute I paint realism in
all it`s glory and the next I
paint what I feel, but to me
the two are not so distinct.
Paramount is be the female
form, which never bores me,
and like many people, I`m
always fighting boredom.
Nothing tests me as much as a
nude and I mean detail and
accuracy following tested Old
Master disciplines.
I want to know the person
through the body; all is there
if you look hard enough.
The same goes for portraiture.
It`s the person.
And this wanting to make
contact even goes for my dog,
cat or horse paintings.
Same principle.
Feminity fascinates me and
this is my main field of
exploration now.
It`s all about female beauty
and I hope I always elevate
rather than degrade....
