Biography

Artist's Statement

There’s a moment of truth in each visual encounter that passes quickly…sometimes unnoticed. I wish to capture the essence of that moment and preserve it, share it with others. This allows the subjects to tell their story through my interpretation, my perspective of the ordinary, but often beautiful moments of life that can slip away unless captured and preserved in art. Keeping the images simple, the messages are easy to translate: love between friends and families, the beauty and joy of life, quiet times. Basic shapes, local color, light and shade give life to the paintings. The blurred, softened edges allow the viewer to step into the work, find a personal dialogue, and emerge with a connection true to their interpretation guided by a new insight.
