ARTIST STATEMENT
Primarily an acrylic painter, I create realistic works with expressive color. The subject
matter has positive themes, as I agree with Pierre-Auguste Renoir that “There are too
many unpleasant things in life as it is, without creating still more of them.” Using my
own photos for reference, my paintings depict everyday people, events or places, such
as a little boy watering flowers, men after a hard day of work, children playing, beautiful
flowers or the reflection of mountains and the sky in a pristine lake. I strive to tell stories
through my work and want the viewer to reflect on the narrative of the painting; to have
an emotional response and discover how even the ordinary can be special. That is my goal.
