“Painting allows me to tap into my inner peace. The process is a healthy exchange between the oils and myself. Sometimes things settle down in a matter of days, often the paintings and I live through many transitions before I can walk away from the conversation. I have been trained in the traditional school of painting, however I am most content when I let the painting direct me in an intuitive, reflective way.”
