“Although I worry for those that are harmed by the virus or the shelter in place, this time has afforded me the luxury of exploration in the studio. It has also helped me to consider new ways to offer my artwork to others, including this one.”

We are constantly bombarded with images, information and ideas. I want to slow things down: to stop the maelstrom for a moment so as to notice deeply what seems most important to me--our common humanity and our shared environment. I am inspired by moments of grace when I experience essential truths in a rush understanding.
The soul in a person who cannot speak for himself, the soft light in the coastal atmosphere – both invoke the heart of our existence. These concerns form the narrative thread throughout my work. Other contemporary artists who inspire me are Daniel Sprick and Alex Kanevsky for their lovely figurative realism, Chester Arnold for his narrative paintings concerning the environment and Adam Hall and Louise LeBourgeois, Chelsea James and Lisa Grossman for their beautiful portrayal of land, water and sky.
