We are all born artists. We are each are given a blank canvas on which to create our life's masterpiece. The joy, and the sorrow is that we are also given the choice as to which colors we lay upon that canvas.

The trick is the wisdom to know which colors are our own, and which are dictated by our perception of what our peers demand of us.

May your life be full of the color that is of your own making.

Artist Statement

Drawing, painting, and creating art have always been a way for me to express my thoughts, and ideas. I have found that I can communicate ideas better, using visual arts, rather than verbal expression. When I paint a portrait, I am able to depict the personality of a person through their expression, and the light in their eyes with a paintbrush much more accurately than I could ever describe it verbally or in writing.

Creating a work of art with my mind and hands, fills my creative urges, allows me to communicate with the world in a way that satisfies my sense of accomplishment, and at the same time allows me to record a portion of my life for posterity.

I continue to be amazed, and enthralled by the process of creating a three-dimensional image on a flat surface. The magic of creating depth, and dimension by applying the black and grays of graphite, or the colors of paint never ceases to heighten my senses. I have been creating works of art for many years, and have never tired of the creative process.

Frequently, I am asked why I chose to create a piece, or what is the meaning of this or that painting. I create art because whenever I am working on a particular piece, that piece is my reality for that moment in time. When I display that work, I am sharing with the viewer a piece of my reality that will never be repeated. I am baring my soul to another, and allowing that person to either accept or reject my reality.

In the end, all I am asking is not that you accept or reject my work. That is your decision, and your reality. I only ask that you take the time to consider what my reality was when I created the artwork that you are looking at.

I have opened the Stonewall Gallery in Loudonville, Ohio that features my own work, along with other artists from time to time. The gallery also serves as my studio and many commissioned portraits and architectual works have emerged from there.
