Artist Statement:
I have been expressing my
views through art all my life.
I studied art in high school
and in college, but it was not
until six years ago that I
started exclusively working in
watercolors. My artwork has
been displayed at shows in
Colorado and on the East
Coast. Most of my paintings
are a reflection of my own
experiences in life. I lived
in Boulder, Colorado for ten
years. The influence the
mountains have had on me is
obvious in my artwork. I also
lived on Cape Cod, in
Massachusetts. Sunsets over
the water on Cape Cod have
been a beautiful inspiration
to me. I am a professional
musician living in the
Seacoast area of New
Hampshire. I play guitar,
saxophone, and clarinet. I
have produced three LP's and
use art and music to express
my creativity and earn a
living....

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I had a natural inclination to create artwork. My family and friends pursued their own artistic direction, so they influenced my interest in the subject. |

| Your Personal Biography |
I was always encouraged by those around me to pursue creativity thru art. My grandmother was an art teacher in Meriden, CT so supplies were always available. The encouragement was probably an attempt at diverting me from troublesome activities, and generally it worked. I never let poor grades in art class discourage me from continuing with artistic activities, because I realized I earned those bad grades by disregarding the assignment or misbehaving during class. In my youth, I used art as an outlet to express unrealistic ideas, something the general public could not necessarily relate to. After completing a B.A. at the University of Colorado in Boulder, I renewed my pursuit for creating artwork. Watercolor has become my medium of choice, because of its workability, but my art doesn’t always have the traditional appearance of works from that medium. |
