Artist Statement:
A painting is by its very
nature a window, and I like
the feeling of looking
through, glimpsing for that
briefest moment the image, the

some specific place but that
universal longing.

coastal forms or acrylic
paintings of medieval
alleyways done from recent
trips to Italy, my work is
rooted in the abstract
compositional possibilities
found in nature. I’m not
interested in literally
describing the physical
landscape per se, but in
finding its’ essence. It is a
constant search to find the
universal within the
specific....
