In the Classical style, sunlight is my subject. The energy that brings color and form
into being, enabling brilliant highlights and deepest shadows. The realist paintings of
studio interior, flowers and water reflections, take on the light in striking and subtle
coloration, that I paint with expressively controlled traditional layering of paint.
I choose these images for their unique persona that extends a bridge to the essence of Nature.
I approach these subjects objectively.
These paintings are created by adding layers of paint beginning with a
monochromatic earth toned thin under-painting overlaid with gradually thicker layers
of oil paint and then finishing glazes of subtle transparent color and impasto highlights
