| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I find art a way of expressing myself. After a very stormy childhood in which I was exposed to war, exploitation, and the general sufferings that resulted from these experiences, I wanted to bring peace to myself as well as to others by representing art works that send a message of hope. |

| Artist Statement |
Painting to me is an expression, interpretation, and appreciation of the world around us. In my opinion any art should inspire and elevate the human spirit. These types of art works are immortal, such as the works of the old masters.
In my paintings I strive to achieve these ideals. I would describe my works as related to the Hudson River School as well as to the Bucks County Impressionistic School.
In my seascapes I bring many different colors together to illustrate the movement of water. In my landscapes and still life works I like to emphasize the play of light as it hits a focal point. I like to paint in oil because I can achieve this sense of light and motion by glazing over layers, and also oil has a deeper richness than other mediums.
