ARTIST STATEMENT

Working with oils absolutely changed my world.

The endless search of capturing nature either in the morning light, the sparkle in someone’s eyes or even the quiet breeze that barely touches the bay,give me reason to yearn for the stroke of my brush.

In addition to nature, Byzantine art with all its mysticism has played an important role for me historically, and my life as an artist. Last year I studied and created a series of Icons.

I am awed by the mystery of how creation occurs. My hope is that my work can speak for itself, I let the viewer absorb its story and create one’s own understanding.
