ART IS LOVE,
LOVE IS AN ART

I am a citizen and artist of the world. I may hang my hat in the southern United States, but my art is informed and revealed by the composition, colors and flavors of the world I live in. I like taking people on a journey, captured in a moment of time when their eyes connect with my artwork.
I am just a messenger, here to motivate and stimulate through technique, color and imagination. With that thought, if you look with an open mind, you will see the message that is up for interpretation.
Color moves people, and I try to convey that through my artwork as different color combinations set different vibes.

Art should always challenge the thought process in an uplifting yet peaceful manner. Sometimes it is the things that are not seen but felt that are the most important. This is what I’m striving for: the internal relationship that is established when the painting communicates to its audience.
My art has evolved over the years from bright geometric images into vivid abstractions. My latest bodies of work feature canvases drenched in colors of sunsets and moon glows, emitting dreamlike images.
