Visual language is both our most common yet most undefinable language. We see thousands of objects every day,
and over time they become commonplace and virtually invisible of their inherent meaning and beauty. Executing
my paintings in the Realist tradition brings attention to the unique qualities that are inherent in all everyday
scenes. Bringing together form, color, lighting effect, composition, and texture in a fine art painting is akin to composing
a symphony, an artist’s visual statement uniquely crafted. For me, the textural and visual feel of objects,
the shapes that make up their unique character, their arrangement to one another, and the way light defines their
form––all crystallize in my personal interpretation, and hopefully enlighten the fact that nothing is truly mundane
in our visual world.
