Artist Statement:
Through my art I want to reach each viewer and invite him to enter the scene. I want to entice him to come into the world of the painting and either enjoy the visit with the past, or imagine how the future will see him. When I create a portrait from a picture or daguerreotype of an ancestor, I aim to bring the memory of that person into the present, and help establish a loving relationship between the contemporary man and his roots. Portraiture is a legacy through which I aim to capture the personality of the subject and perhaps his soul.
In this digital era, with its fast pace and disposable items, I want to create not just a dispassionate record of people and places, but a lasting visual bridge between generations, in which the people of the past and present identify with each other with pride....
