Steeping my life in beauty brings color to my days and a song to my heart

The concept that an artist would be revered by popular culture is an immediate dismissal of his relevance as an artist.

I'm working on a snow scene right now, and it's summer. It's hot, and I will get chilly. I'll have to turn on the heat. My wife walks in, and it's 95 degrees in the studio. I know it's nutty, but it's a projection you have where you step into the painting.

Each of us is a small part of God's plan. I'm a small part. I create paintings that are being used by God.

I'm a warrior for light.

Cherish the people who make up your home, and you'll notice the hearth fires burn brighter than ever before.

Everyone can identify with a fragrant garden, with beauty of sunset, with the quiet of nature, with a warm and cozy cottage.
