Artist Statement:
"My favorite medium is oil and
landscapes fascinate me but my
personality forces me to
continuously stretch my wings
and try new things. My
subject determines my media.
This is why I paint in oils,
watercolor and acrylic. I
want to experience the entire
spectrum of creating art.
I am rarely totally satisfied
with anything I do. I do not
know if this is a good thing
but I do believe it drives me
to be a better painter. The
turning point for me was when
I started looking for
composition and values in
everything. Once I learned how
to see as an artist, I started
viewing the world and the
people in it in a totally
different way.
To me, painting is a solitary
endeavor so when I paint I am
in my own world and nothing
else matters until I am
finished. It is the one thing
I can do that does not need
require anyone else's
approval. My paintings are
based on internal thoughts and
emotions felt at the time I
saw that face, landscape or a
beautiful flower. Composition,
color hue, media and painting
style all set the scene for me
to try to translate...
