Artist Statement:
Most of my recent works are "alla prima" (painted in one sitting). They are based on years of observation of the vitality of forces found in nature. All of my works incorporate what I have learned about principles present in the universe and in art. Works are usually approached intuitively and change in character and concept as they near completion. I am interested in making a statement of interpretation about nature rather than with the eyes. The personality of spirit of the viewer is hopefully moved to a new level of understanding and awareness.
