My belief as an artist comes down to a simple principle - to paint the beauty in life that inspires me – whatever that may be.  And it is that spark of inspiration that influences me to put brush and palette knife to canvas. 

As a person and an artist, I am multi-faceted, therefore, I am motivated by many things creatively.     

I am inspired by color;  sometimes strong, sometimes subtle.    

I am inspired by light and the way light transforms the ordinary into a thing of beauty. Sometimes light can be harsh, sometimes it can be soft and sometimes it can create beautiful mood.  

I am inspired by shape, lines, curves and the how they interact which creates tension or harmony.  

I am inspired by the beauty of the human form in its infinite variety.  

Sometimes, I am simply inspired by a thought.  

For me, it’s not the subject matter that is important, it is the inspiration from my heart which finds a way to speak on the canvas - which I hope connects with yours.
