The continually changing New England landscape and the vastness of the Southwest inspire my paintings. I have lived and painted in Vermont since the early sixties and have spent time, and painted near Big Bend, Texas, where we have a rustic adobe house. My paintings are not necassarily about a particular place but about an appreciation of the sensual wealth that surrounds us. I draw inspiration and energy from dramatic skies, constantly changing light and the details of nature as well as it's infinite scale. My most recent paintings explore intimate views of water, trying to capture it's multi-dimensions... from stream bottom through layers of water, to the surface tension, flow and water splashes, to reflections in the water. There are endless possibilities.
