As a plein-air painter, I like to devote time to the color of things as the sun creates them. I see myself not as an extension of the camera but of the emotion these colors can evoke.
I also like to put a positive message in my art.
ART is a vitamin to our soul.
If my paintings would give people the feeling of Hope, Vitality, and Love, I would be content.
