“I desire to create visual images that communicate a clear spiritual presence, whether it be landscape or stilllife. I am not speaking of any religion as such, but of the mystery and transient beauty of our planet, particularly the Four Corners Region of the USA where I grew up. I rely on visual memory, dreams, and feelings for these images of landscape which are often based on a real place but are imaginary to the degree that I only seek to capture a feeling about the place and communicate it to the viewer. My current work in acrylics has opened new doors of exploration and expanse into abstractions based on the natural world.”
