About the Artist



I am a painter living in the glorious Finger Lakes region of upstate New York.

In my paintings I try to capture everything about a moment in time:  the light, the feeling, the sense of space, the action, the stillness.  My paintings are colorful and I presently work in oil, although I have also used acrylic as well.   My work is representational, yet I don’t strive for photo-realism.  In all of my paintings, whether they are still life, portraits, landscapes or cityscapes, I try to connect with the subject, so that by the time I am finished I feel like I have inhabited the scene. And I hope the viewer does as well.
