When I begin a series of paintings, I never know where the process will lead me. As a painter, my art is a synthesis of my personal feelings, the subject or colors that inspire me, and my materials and techniques. I use changing light to create a variety of moods. Typically, I start paintings with a color idea and evolve toward compositions in which color is my primary subject.

The joy of painting for me is losing myself in the process and letting the paint lead the way. Serenity and simplicity are my primary goals.
