Fine Art
Artist's Statement

I am a contemporary and visionary artist.  A native of Boston, I
currently reside in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Throughout my life
my art has gone through many phases, including oil, pen and ink,
pastels, charcoal, pencil and watercolor.  Presently, I am working
mostly with acrylic paints on canvas and paper.

Until twelve years ago I mainly created artwork with an objective
reality.  I reached a point where I needed to expand my creativity, and
began to work spontaneously from within.  I use a free-form
application of paint, and am open to whatever flows through my
consciousness.  It amazes me how the images manifest with such
diversity.  I look forward to each new experience.

Although the greater part of my artwork is abstract, lately I find myself
enjoying the use of more objectivity.  Occasionally I paint without
using brushes or tools to create pure, untouched visions that reflect
ocean scenes, landscapes, or cosmic spaces.  I call this type of
painting “Innerscapes.”

I hope that you will enjoy my artwork, and find it to be a contemplative
and uplifting experience.
