ARTIST STATEMENT
As an artist, I loved being outdoors and painting the rural American landscape. I seek subjects that have something to say; old houses, farms, fields, and of course the blue-gray skies and snows of winter. I strive to see beyond the obvious, and paint the poignant side of the subject. With paint, a few brushes, color and light, I try to do just that. I feel my work reflects the rich tradition of the Bucks County Impressionists who made New Hope Pennsylvania a famous art colony. Living and working in this idyllic setting, these artists painted masterpieces that captured the rich texture, color, and atmospheric quality of the picturesque rolling hills, farms, and the tiny hamlets that contoured this Delaware River Valley.
As a child, my parents exposed me to many of the Impressionists' exhibitions throughout the New Hope area. The paintings I saw, and later the works of Homer and Wyeth, were about places and things I knew and loved. My own experiences of exploring the countryside, pursuing game in woodlots, fields, creek bottoms and across the frozen corn stubble of winter, all became the heart stone of my work. I knew early on that I wanted to somehow incorporate those emotional attachments into my own paintings. I try to draw upon those early influences in the way I look at life, and the subjects I choose to paint. I am bound by the pureness of nature, the plays of color and light, and the sometimes human stories that my subjects tell. My work is an amalgamation of suggested realism upon an impressionistic field in which I strive to express the evocative subtleties of the subject's spirit, rather than simply recording an image.
I am honored that my paintings are included in many fine collections, and features in publications such as Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine. Several of my works are owned by a Board Trustee of the Brandywine River Art Museum in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania.
