Welcome

The act of painting, to me, is an inspiration of itself. It is brought about by the experiences from travel and nature and music and every outside influence, but the act of painting holds a fascination all its own.

Painting is a continual journey, an eternal act of energy. Sometimes the creative process is finely controlled, sometimes it is frenetic and wildly abstracted. More times than not, it is a combination of both and a phenomenal experience.
