I have no idea what is meant by an Artist Statement.  I just enjoy painting.  I am not attempting to transcend to a higher plane... I don't have any insight as to the meaning of.... anything.  I just enjoy the process of interpreting what my eyes and my mind see.  I usually make hasty sketches and make some color notations of the subject matter and refer to the many photographs I take when I begin the painting in my studio. Sometimes it comes easily, but that is a rarity.  Most often it is a long process of trial and error... one correction after another.  Quite often I will work on a painting months, even years, after it has been "finished."

 

AWARDS

I gathered up my nerve and entered my first show/competiton in 2003 and to my surpise, my painting received an Honorable Mention Award.  Since then, I have been lucky enough to have recieved  numerous awards in local art shows/competitions sponsored by central New York art associations:  Fulton Art Association, Art Association of Oswego, Central New York Art Guild, Salmon River Art Association, Syracuse Council For The Arts
