I am very fortunate to live along the waterfront. It is a steady source of inspiration. While the brackish inshore surroundings offer an abundance of subjects, I am also drawn to scenes over deeper water. No matter the distance from the shore, the environments are rich with sharp lighting, long shadows, and high contrast.
“all the technical aside, it needs to have the feel.”
While many of my paintings center on the water, a great work of art can fall on any subject. As a commission painter, I embrace each client’s vision with a passion to create custom work of art.
