Artist Statement:
"Life is not about how many breaths you take, but rather how many things take your breath away." I have been fortunate to be able to travel to many places in the U.S. and around the World. I rely on the individual subject to inspire my medium of choice. I am an impressionist artist and focus on color, light, and atmosphere in my seascapes, and landscapes. Many of these works also incorporate textures and layering to achieve additional dimension and enhancement. My paintings of people are candid scenes taken from their interactions during everyday life.
