My most recent paintings are stripes and abstracts.
Older work includes abstracts, impressionist landscapes, fantasy owls, expressionist moonscapes and Southwest nights and mountains.

To enjoy and learn from. Great art breathes. It's alive. Forever giving. There's nothing more fulfilling than creating something from nothing. My deep desire is to know, to understand and to live the "becoming" experience. This happens when I paint. This is why I make art. Pure joy. Painting makes life make sense.
