My images talk about light and observing nature
as She makes art. I never tire of chasing those colors that can
drift like perfume, or bolt out of the darkness, that make a drama
of the moment never to be repeated exactly the same another time.
I have been a practicing artist for over 50 years.
I enjoy working en plein air and in all mediums.
My studio has hosted a figure drawing group every
Sunday afternoon for almost 44 years.
