The subjects that I paint are always choices from the heart. The inception of each canvas is special be it my interpretation of something that I find particularly beautiful or a painting of somebody I know and love. My paintings are invariably a joyous journey from beginning to end and needless to say I love them all. As doors open and close on my journey through life I am eternally grateful for the gift of creativity and the inevitable sense of peace and joy that evolves while I create.
