Statement
Painting is the central point of my life. It is both my work and my recreation. I find it relaxing and frustrating. I am concerned with the why and the how of painting and the folding of them into the what I am painting. Choosing what to paint can be the hardest choice of all, or sometimes the simplest. The choice of subject of implies a direction. It can be the beginning of a process, a search, a series. The choice of a subject often leads to months of exploration on similar themes and developments. The resulting series are tied together with similar continuties and new developments.
