About The Artwork
For the last ten years I've painted food or the landscapes they come from. While not an environmental activist I want to paint the beauty of nature while we can still enjoy it and hopefully for centuries to come. The old masters enjoyed painting food as it was a sign of value and wealth among other things. I like to paint it for its gem-like beauty, so important today as agriculture is changing the food we eat. It is my hope that viewers can enjoy my paintings similarly. Oil and egg tempera are ancient mediums. I paint in both. Egg tempera carries with it the craft of an alchemist and contributes to feeling of painting with the old masters. Oil is more forgiving as a medium and better suited to a looser style as well as larger paintings. Painting in the representational style dispenses with the task of defining the subject as it is obvious, but it also allows a broader viewing audience to enjoy the art. I also enjoy finding the abstractions within my subject matter. Some of these end up in other works of art.

United States
I am an American artist based in New England and use ancient mediums to paint in oil and egg tempera. I fell in love with painting at the age of nine and more recently with egg tempera after taking workshops with the master egg tempera painter Koo Schadler. As a representational artist (realist without being photo realism) I take a naturalist's and painterly, not a romanticist's perspective, seeing the gemlike qualities of everyday scenes and objects: iridescence, color changes where light hits a curve, shapes refracted through a water-filled glass bottle, shadows and reflections in landscapes and interiors. Choosing the representational style and small to medium sized paintings, I search for the meditative beauty in the ordinary and the extraordinary in the often overlooked, things not seen with a fleeting glance. While I like to push against the precision needed for egg tempera painting, I also like the spontaneity of oiI. I also love music and play the piano, the cello and do a fair amount of gardening which you'll often see in many of my paintings.
