Artist Statement

  

I believe that when society is at its worst, it is the Artist that rises to the fore to challenge that worst, with the truth that they have found in their work.  These Universal truths of Love, Hate, Life and Death, are what drive my work. These things that we have labeled the 'Human Condition', the ever changing landscape of the Human Soul.

 My work is my vehicle into this Landscape.

 I have no formal art training, or formula.  I could not begin to describe how I start a painting or drawing, except to say that I try to find the best that I am and start there.

 I have sought out the Artists that I have admired and that have influenced me in my work the most.  I have had coffee in the studio of my childhood inspiration Frank Frazetta, countless glasses of wine with my friend Ron Wing, I have stood in front of the work of George Inness, Andrew Wyeth, Albert Ryder, Monet and more. They have all told me the same thing - 'Go and do better than I have done.'  There in lies my struggle. Not to be better than these Artists that have had the courage to make a mark on a blank surface; But to be better than myself and make my own.
