Artist's Statement
If my instruction in the fine arts has in some way unleashed the individual creative spirit of a student by breaking through a sense of limitation, I have achieved my purpose.
I create art because it is who I am. My work does not come from me, it comes through me…In those quiet moments of no thought, I feel a nudge, "paint this", and the rest is a wonderful journey. Although I paint from nature, sometimes the figure, occasionally a still life, I always paint from my heart, eager to share the vision with others.
