What I love about water – ocean, lake, river, waterfall – is how it is always changing. Plus ça change, plus c’est la même. Change is inevitable. The challenge is how to capture the depth, the movement. In my abstract, acrylic paintings, water sometimes looks like water, but it also sometimes looks like space or sky. Honestly, it’s not something I always control. Some paintings just happen.

FINE ART
Florida
I've had a lot of good days in Florida: time off at sales meetings (when I was working); visiting my in-laws when they were alive; recuperating from a bout with cancer; and just plain relaxing on vacation. Wonderful weather. Interesting art galleries. Delicious food. And a lot of time to paint. What could be bad?
