About
Creating art for me is about feeling the relaxed mood altering exhilaration of discovery with nothing to lose. It nourishes me and contributes greatly to my having a sense of balance in life. I move from painting to writing songs to sculpture without the pressure of feeling driven.
My paintings normally start with a photograph that I have either taken or borrowed from an old family album. As I express myself in the making of the work, a story related to the image will emerge. The stories often times reflect the beauty of our mundane common experiences. I attempt to encapsulate those moments.
