By the grace of God I have been given the talent to portray on paper what I cannot express in words. My approach to painting has a tendency to be analytical. Intrigued by scenes where the light and dark areas of a picture create a design of their own, I focus on the overall composition of the drawing first. Once I choose a subject or scene I continually break each section of the picture into smaller areas, focusing on each shape and it's relationship to the whole. I use color to express the mood of the scene. Rather than replicate the subject, I express it, inviting you to view the scene as I perceive it.
