"I have painted still life, flowers, and landscape for as long as I have been an artist. The three genres have always interested me, mainly because I use nature as a vehicle, or an excuse, to paint, and I enjoy painting places and things that I know and for some reason holds my interest."

All images are painted rapidly, in an effort to capture the changing nature of organic forms.
With my interiors, still life and landscape are often paired together, as both influence one another equally, in my mind. These subjects are strongly related, since the kinds of still life objects I often choose to paint are themselves directly derived from the landscape: flowers; leaves; fruits and vegetables; bird's nests, etc.
