Living in Orange County has been a joy for me. The
hills, the ocean, and everything in between begging to be painted. I
strive to give my paintings emotions which are generally happy and uplifting
although nature can have a terrifying side. Nature's beauty and power is
one of the best subjects an artist has.
I believe that art comes
in many varieties, but feel that true art is made to trigger a feeling from
inside the viewer, and is not true art if that feeling must be described to
the viewer by anything other than the artwork.
A strong sense of light
and color are the aspects I most often try to capture in my paintings.
In the end, I paint because it is a true joy, and a unique experience for
other people to be involved with.
