" I love to paint!

I love the process which to me can be a mystery or a puzzle and I enjoy the design or fantasy I can create with color, shape and line. There is always so much more to learn and enjoy in my next attempt. I shall never know enough, but the process will always remain seductive and hopefully enduring."

  • " I began painting at age 35 but my interest in art began much earlier. I have traveled extensively through Europe and the USA visiting every museums and sites where great artists have painted. However I am an intuitive painter so I have tried to saturate my mind with what I have observed in order to present an image in my own style."
