I look for beauty everywhere, I see beauty in everything. There is a "something" within me that must express that beauty. It is not a thing I think about; it's just there. I do that with my painting. I began with landscapes and flowers and have branched out into the landscape of the face, cats, buildings and even my son's 1965 Mustang. Recently, I designed a book cover for an award-winning book.
I create because I must. Beauty is all around us in everyday things and now and then, I must take out my paints an brushes and create a lasting impression of that special moment in time, so that it will not be forgotten.
