- Artist's Statement:
- My love for drawing and painting is a part of who I am. To play with color and tone and light is both satisfying and challenging.
I believe painting is much like composing music, you must first know the basic notes. Without a good foundation of drawing, composition and the use of color, you will not strike a pleasing harmony. But a painter should also welcome the magical times when the mind is quieted and the “muse” takes over. This is when I believe the best work is done.
Composing a satisfying portrait is finding that perfect blend of likeness and a feeling of the subjects “person”. I believe we are all unique creations of God.
