“I strive for the selective use of values, colors and strategic accents that can delight and stimulate the viewer so a scene may appear to be truer to the spirit of the subject and seem to be more real than a purely photographic reproduction.  I humbly try to have my paintings be alive with tactile brushwork and atmospheric lighting that seems to breathe.”
