About the Artist:
Painting for me is a passion and a challenge. Living a life is all about energy. Paint is the language that best reflects my response to the world around me. I am continually fascinated by the patterns in nature, and the relationships of form and color in space. Light, time and color are big factors in my painting too. Whether looking at the human form, the
landscape, or still life, I am always striving to recreate the energy around us by painting the interactions of forms in space and the vibrations of one color against another. The paint has an energy and excitement of its own. I hope to share the experiences and observations of my world to create a universal statement that all people can relate to as their experience.
