"Shadow, shape, color and composition govern my view of the world,
providing a discovery of beauty in the commonplace.
Fortunately, my work enables me to travel and explore the world,
plein air, with brush and paint. It is my hope that the viewer can witness the beauty
or story I strive to convey in each image and delight in its creation." |
