Artist's Statement

Mid century modern meets Georgian traditionalist best describes the influences for my art.  As a child, I lived and played within enormous pieces of artwork: mid century modern homes filled with natural light from walls of glass and open spaces. Then, modern married traditional resulting in my continually evolving style of art.

Although I enjoy all art mediums, I have a soft spot for the creamy texture and fresh rich colors of oil paint. Painting is like putting together a puzzle, except the pieces and the end result are part of the puzzle I create.  Sometimes the painting takes on a life of its own and the final result even surprises me.
