I grew up in central Indiana in a rural area and have always felt a great affinityfor the natural landscape. Each time I make a painting there is a connection that resonates between the image and myself. To be able to coax the color out of the shadows and catch the sunlight at either end of the day is a challange I continually seek. The rewards are beyond anything material. I have always felt this way about my art and it is deeply gratifying after all these years to find that the richness of seeing only grows.
