As a painter, I paint! As an artist I hope I create a mystery. I always have the idea in my mind as to what I am going to paint, but as I am painting - things become more clear, more involved and more mysterious. That's what I love about what I do.

As the finished product of my art emerges, the mystery unfolds for me more and more. I use color and design to excite the eye and to make an immediate connection for the viewer to create his/her own mystery.
