With exuberant color and texture this awarded impressionist painter reinterprets a joyful world.
When I paint I persuade my tools to come up with something that I see as valuable mostly within my heart. I grab some bit of energy that feels good, tastes familiar but isn’t, like that moment at the apex when you launch yourself down the slope quickly meeting known and unknown excitement all the way. That certain something races my heart like wine in blood.. ..
I paint through-
confusion to clarity…
on a new road finding the path to a complete idea…
to a sense of a well-hoofed adventure…
with a sense of fulfillment about this creative endeavor, they are all different, you know, and finally arriving with understanding , only to utter gratitude for this whole journey.
