Artist Statement

My goal is to create paintings and drawings that are emotionally evocative and stimulate the imagination and mind.  Through my paintings, I like to tell stories that capture unique moments or moods. My architectural background is reflected in many of my landscapes that feature classic architecture.  My artistic goal is to produce art that evokes a memory, a moment, an emotion, a light quality, a mood, a story.  I want to create art that moves people.
