The riotous colors in a Christmas sunset unleashed my passion for painting. It was the most spiritually moving moment of my life. I was launched on my journey to try and reproduce those Christmas feelings. I find that by painting I can evoke the emotions that I associate with that evening.
In that Christmas sunset I found myself staring at the most intense reds, oranges and yellows colors splashed across the sky. The moment the light started to fade I knew I wanted to remember those colors and the feelings they produced in me. When I paint I find some of those same spiritual feelings that I experienced on that long ago Christmas. I paint using both acrylics and oils, mixing in other mediums to create movement, light and color. My work is in both the abstract and impressionistic styles. The subjects include; landscapes, iconic buildings of Key West and animals.
I love to have people discover their personal meanings in my paintings. There are as many meanings as there are audiences. I have many dreams from which I take impressions and moods that I bring to life on canvas. I hope you find something here for yourself as well. Please let me know what you think of the art and if there are any special pieces that you particularly like.
