I paint ordinary people doing everyday things at interesting places. My strongly edited realistic images of the world reflect the emotions and humor of life's interactions.

They are easy to understand, happy, colorful, often emotional, narrative or picture stories, scenes, and portraits.

Bold contrasts and the limited palette of my paintings, draws you in with their brightness and color. Often with touches of Hopper, Biberman, Ginsburg, Andrew Wyeth, or Arsenault, each with their compelling sense of mood, time, and place that describe moments of shared human experience.

You, the viewer, are encouraged to engage your own unique thoughts, dreams, feelings, and experiences to complete the pictures in new and unexpected ways.
