High culture is paranoid about sentiment. But human beings are intensely sentimental.

The act of contributing to the lives of others is its own reward. A servant's heart is a greater motivator than financial gain.

I believe a radiant, light-filled tomorrow should be normal to the experience of living.

Whether it's a pebble in a riverbed or a soaring mountain peak, I see everything in the world as the handiwork of the Lord. When I paint, I try to represent the beauty of God's creation in my art. Many modern painters see the world as a jumble of random lines and shapes with no divine beauty or order, and their works reflect their viewpoint. Because I see God's peacefulness, serenity, and contentment, I work to capture those feelings on the canvas. My vision of God defines my vision of the world.

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

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

Romance makes a radiant sunrise out of every moment.
