Artist Statement:
An early affinity with the
French impressionists and
expressionists continues to
influence my work along with a
handful of contemporary
artists whom I find inspiring.
I try to approach each new
work with a fresh eye for
color, line and textural
variation. My choice of tools
is primarily the palette knife
but this has grown to include
a greater use of brushes and
paper towels into the painting
process. The subject matter is
unlimited as I continue to
travel primarily abroad in
search of views that are
unattainable in this
hemisphere.
