My interests were always varied and include music, gardening, outdoor activities, sports, sciences, literature and fly fishing, among others. As with all artists, many of these find a place in and influence on my work.
My art works are always abstractions of both nature and imagination, mostly built sort of fusing figure and landscape. This sometimes include fragments of figure but primarily nonobjective abstraction. Often, I find myself painting imaginary places where something is expected or has happened. Someplace where people ‘feel’ something special. Something spiritual or awe inspiring. A thing or place of wonder. View Complete Artist Statement
