WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE!
Like that iconic Sun Gate pictured on your right, the door is always open for your viewing and consideration of any of my works that grab your attention. My subject matter is varied--whatever moves me to pick up the brush and capture it the way I see and feel it. Most of all, I always try and keep a crack in my creative window open to the limitless possibilities. Light, color, perspective, shape and space are powerful tools for transforming a blank canvas into a moment worth preserving.
So take a look for yourself. I welcome your comments and questions.
A thought from Pablo Picasso:
We all know that art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth.

This is my favorite photo from my Peru vacation. After a vigorous hike up to Machu Picchu's Sun Gate, and a welcome rest, I spied this lovely Peruvian girl gazing at the site of the ruins below. If you look closely, you will see the silhouette of another hiker to her right. I decided to leave that out of my painting, as she alone was such a memorable image.
