I never really know what I am going to paint. Something strikes me…. witnessing the vulnerability in a human interaction, the magic in a landscape, a building that seems bursting with stories, an old black and white photo that can speak more than color. lt is the light, the essence that emanates from that moment in time that inspires me. A moment that could take a lifetime and many layers, to see its authenticity. My process in painting reflects that, the best ones are painted over time, an evolution of layers to unearth what really lays beneath.
