"My goal is to have my paintings capture the feeling of a particular time and place. I have always been fascinated by the way that painters portray the quality and temperature of light. As a pastel painter, I continue to be drawn to scenes where the light is the central character. Whatever I am painting--from landscapes, both natural and manmade, to figures, animals, and portraits--I'm always striving to render the light I see onto the surface of my artwork."
