artist statement

my goals are simple.  I just want to paint what I enjoy

while always looking to improve myself.

I also use a reminder to myself - my vision is unique

and I don't need to paint like anyone else.

                                                                                           I like the freedom of being who I am and not                                                                                                                             what I think I should be.

the journey for me is more important

than the destination.

to paint plein air helps preserve what is in the now

for the future.  it is tremendous joy

to be outside in the fresh air enjoying

the whole of the moment.
