ARTIst Statement

“A life-long artist, I find the force and beauty of the creative process to be compelling. It is vital to my existence. I thank God for my talent and I feel close to Him when I’m painting in my art studio, His creation/nature is my greatest source of inspiration. Having lived on or near oceans and lakes for forty years, my greatest inspirations are water and nature reflected in water. I find coastal light to be especially breathtaking and I find joy in recreating those almost-Spiritual moments in time when the exquisite nuances of light dance on water.  While creating a painting, spirit and intuition guide while my hands mindfully follow. This is an intensely satisfying experience as I strive to recreate beauty that has touched my soul.”
