Every conversation, every cuddle, aver kiss and caress, even every disagreement, adds another brushstroke to the picture of home you paint with the days and hours of your life.

The disintegration of the culture starts with the artist. Im on a crusade to turn the tide in the arts, to restore dignity to the arts and, by extension, to the culture.

When I filter the sunshine in my life, I bask in the light of a transforming and inspiring reality.

My paintings always feature trails that dissolve into mysterious areas, patches of light that lead the eye around corners, pathways, open gates, etc.

I share something in common with Norman Rockwell and, for that matter, with Walt Disney, in that I really like to make people happy.

I try to create paintings that are a window for the imagination. If people look at my work and are reminded of the way things once were, or perhaps, the way they could be, then I've done my job.

The worlds I paint leave a lot to engage the imagination by hinting at what lies beyond the four edges of the painting.
