THE WORK WAS INSPIRED BY an exotic flower pot with its flourishing, trailing flowers basking in the late afternoon Caravaggio-esque light, Viewing this harmonious scene, I was struck by how it made me recall the great Renaissance paintings. I knew I had to paint it! In this portrait he is more than just a pot. He is a stand-in for humanity, seeing eye to eye with the lunar moth, who, with its abundance of eyes, sees clearly and is a stand-in for the natural world. I didn’t plan it that way; I just wanted to catch the beauty of the pot, his flowers and the golden light of the setting sun. The image simply emerged from the depths of my paint-soaked, sun-dazzled mind. It totally reinforces my artistic thesis: harmony between humanity and the natural world. I HOPE THE VIEWER SENSES my lineage and my gratitude as a painter to the great Renaissance masters. Perhaps from now on the viewer, too, will be able to see eye to eye with nature. TECHNICAL MATTERS: I chose acrylic paint to achieve the varied and brilliant colors of the flowers. As a gardener, the subject matter is dear to my heart; and I used a realistic rendering style because there is nothing more beautiful than flowers.

As a painter, I am an explorer, uncovering, recording and rearranging the beauty of the natural world, as well as the beauty of human beings. I select and distill the very essence of my subject, harmony between nature and humanity, sometimes combining the two. This symbiosis makes the finished work even more beautiful than either of its constituents alone. When you first visit my fantasy world, you will notice a lot of extraordinary things going on in my paintings. For instance, I might substitute a bird for a hat, or a butterfly for a bowtie. These unusual substitutions function as symbols and provide subtle clues and playful suggestions about my work. The shapes of birds and hats, or butterflies and bowties, are so similar that viewers never even question the replacements. I pick the substitutes because they fit graphically and visually. But it is more than that. We as humans fit with nature. We fit together so well, in fact, that I am able to paint a natural object–a butterfly–in place of the bowtie–and viewers can see this as truth. My world will refresh you with its vibrant colors, textures, and interchangeable shapes as you immerse yourself in the integration of nature and humanity. You will be at peace with yourself and at one with nature. You will experience nature in a totally new way and see beauty in places where you never before thought to look.
