Making art gives purpose to living.  It is the fingerprint of humanity.  It is a statement or expression that can describe aspects of our existence.  “I was here!” “This is what I saw!”  “This is what I experienced”.  “This is what I want to communicate”.

When my intellect, focus, and expression combine with a subject matter, something that I can only describe as magical  occurs.  The lines, marks, shapes, and colors that I use create an essence of what I see and feel.  It captures a moment in time.  My paintings and drawings are the statements that I make to convey my existence in this world.
