Art arouses the senses while captivating and inviting observers to think, dream, visualize, wonder, and feel. As an artist, I have the ability to bring something from nothing into existence. There’s a very spiritual connection when I pick up the brush. I realize my potential to evoke emotion and capture the viewer’s attention with vibrant colors that emerge among a contrast of direction and texture. When I create, I tend to lose myself in my work. It’s good to have a creative outlet...a way to get away or even help others to do the same.
My inspiration comes from many places, but more often than not my ideas for the next painting come from a doodle on a napkin that I then stuff into my shirt pocket for later review.
