Watercolors

Since childhood, painting (first with acrylics, then oils and most recently, watercolors) has always been tremendously rewarding for me.
Still Life painting, in particular, has a special place in my heart. It is a wonderful vehicle in which to work with light & shadow, simplicity of form, and to appreciate how “alive” even the most inanimate of objects can be.
Many of my paintings are studies from The Masters, which I have found to be most absorbing and inspiring.

Some of my more recent work is more abstract and offers a world where I can express my love of color & form, and where they can exist purely in and of themselves.
It is in my own work that I strive for a vitality – a free expression of life through fertility of color, form, and energy.
