Artist’s Statement
"When I paint, I set out to create a mood rather than recording what I see in front of me. This intuitive approach allows the painting to develop in unique and interesting directions. Even if I wished to, it would be impossible for me to recreate a given work. In that sense, my paintings are truly one-of-a-kind.
Viewers have told me there is a spare elegance in my work, a capturing of beauty in simplicity. I consider that high praise indeed!"
