THE BEAUTY OF A PAINTING
is its ability to transport to
another time, another place.
Whether focusing on a subject or painting from imagination, it often feels like I visit another world with my brushes.
When the paint dries, my wish is for the finished painting to be the start of another’s journey. My hope is for the viewer to be transported to a special place due to an evoked memory or feeling. Maybe it is familiar or perhaps something intangible and unknown, yet very real. Ultimately, it is the painting itself that interacts with both of us. For this reason, most of my paintings hover between realism and the abstract. A bit like those fleeting images that slide away while awakening from a dream.
My paintings are watercolor, although occasionally a touch of ink or other mixed media is also used to achieve a certain effect.
