Artist's Statement

 "My First goal when creating is to communicate the Flow of Energy, the personality of the piece through the beauty of Design and Color.  I love to experiment with different techniques involving Color.  If I can present to you, the viewer of my art, a window displaying the Non-ordinary of a quite common subject..change your perception of the mundane to the Extraordinary, then I have achieved my primary objective.
   My Second Goal is weaving a myriad of Colors, Values, Tones in order to draw you into the Mood of the artwork.  Perhaps, bring a smile to you..a feeling of inner
Joy or Amusement or a Sense of Peace..a small breeze of Nostalgia tickling
your memory..a moment in Time..Different from the hectic daily schedule.  If my work Haunts you...long after you have walked away, then I will have done my job as an Artist.
   For me,
creating my Art is Magic, very personal, using Melody and Color to conjure up the images..to create a response...See the Music..Feel the Color.  
    I hope that you enjoy the Magic!"

Bright sparkling paints of Watercolor create the mood, the feeling of the piece. Color flows into color, creating in a SW Arizona Pour,  a vision of an Ancient Culture lost in the sands of time, on "the Road to Garcia Well." 
Using the values of Graphite allows the design and structure to focus attention on the message presented in the piece.
