Artist’s Statement
“Each and every person has their own individual beauty, outside and inside....they are in themselves great masterpieces of creation! Painting people is how I celebrate humankind and each person’s uniqueness, and I paint people as a tribute to our Creator.
I’m basically self-taught (a work-in-progress!), taking inspiration from old masters as well as modern day artists.... I live for art. I love to look at it, and I love to create it.”
I love my painting, teaching and mentoring, and I paint every single day if I possibly can..... I don’t want to go to my grave with my paintings still inside me!”
