After spending many years as a landscape artist, I have gradually moved into the realm of abstraction. This has been an organic process for me. As I have observed the colors, shapes and movement of the natural word, I have come to understand the symmetry and balance inherent in nature. This realization led me to refine and develop my art into a more cohesive whole; into a more unified expression of our beautiful, natural surroundings. When I paint, I leave all distractions and negative influences behind and simply exist in the joy of creation and renewal of spirit. I hope my paintings can inspire these emotions in others so they may share in the same tranquility and peace I find in my art.
