...feelings about my artwork:
"Truth in painting, as in literature, can be portrayed more eloquently and deeply by depicting a true impression rather than stating all the visual facts. As a traditional impressionist, most everything is self-explanatory; however, our discovery of color harmony is not as much intellectual realization as it is a savoring of a visual stimulus combined with a textural variation of brushstrokes. What painter can resist the temptation of painting the melting medley of color created by reflection? When I am painting, I try to remember the vivid colors because my camera never captures the whole truth of what I am seeing. Chords of color are meant to harmonize visually much like musical creations are meant to fall pleasantly upon our ears."
