Artist Statement
I've painted most of my life; in between being a teacher, producing films, writing screen plays and songs. Painting was a place I visited from time to time, but now I feel I have finally come home, and I don't want to leave. There is peace of mind, and this is where I want to stay for the rest of my life. My mom painted into her 80s as will I hopefully!
I paint when I am drawn to a certain emotion that a particular setting or image evokes. Often this emotion might reflect my position at that time, or just something I'm challenged to capture on canvas. I've always liked subtle colors, blues, grays.
