ARTIST STATEMENT
Whether the subject is a tree or someone’s face or hands, my art is typically about capturing something beautiful in the way of its colors - at least that’s what I strive for. Color is what brings a work to life more than any other single variable in terms of how powerful a painting can ultimately be. For me, even brightness and contrast values are subordinate, and serve mostly as a catalyst or catapult for the potential impact that color can have in a painting.  Color can make an average composition look good, a good composition look excellent, and an excellent composition look completely breathtaking. One has to apply the right color, in the right amount, in the right place, and in the right way.
