I am a lifelong Massachusetts resident. I find inspiration in New England’s natural beauty and concepts that take me back to my childhood. My career was spent teaching high school design students, and today I'm fortunate to be able to paint full time. I create landscapes, seascapes, along with pop culture iconography. 

 

I love the process of making art, it provides me with an emotional connection to my work. In my artwork, I try to incorporate ideas that are fundamental and essential. Ideas or values such as truth, clarity, and strength. Illustrating these values help me successfully navigate through the emotional process of making art.

 

I want my work to challenge me in concept and technique, while keeping the viewer engaged. Every new project helps me improve in both of these areas. Each new idea seems to provide one answer, while introducing several more questions. The questions are compelling and inviting. In this respect, I hope to continue to make art that illustrates, inquires, and inspires. A central thread I try to incorporate in all of my work is one of inspection, simplification, and resolution.
